How to get a squirrel happy

As some of you might know, i was busy for about 2 months getting a new computer since mgf trashed mine.....
Yesterday i got an email from dell, and in short, they just screwed me over

I was so pissed off, that i browsed through the forums from my local towns to see if any computers where for sale

so, i'm now the proud owner of a pentium 4, 3,6 Ghz, 512 MDR, 220 Gig HardDisk, a kick *** vid card:ATI Radeon 9800Pro AGP(8x) 128MB, DvD/Cd both writer... everything cordless 21 inch Flatscreen


i saw this ad on a forum and called right away.. they asked about 1200 euro's for it and i managed to get it down to 925,-...
I think it is somewhat illegal, but to be honest, i dont give a rats *** about it

Tell me, how did Dell screw you over?

And congrats on your new hardware, sounds like it kicks some serious arse! :)

Done any tests, like 3dMark i.e ?

It amazes me sometimes as to the shear stupidity of these large companies, you'd have thought they'd have got better as they expanded, but no. It seems to me that they try to achieve new and unbelievable levels of stupidity!

I bought something from a large company about a year ago, and paid for it in full, and i am still getting invoices (usually one a month) saying that i owe them £0.00. Now it's not a big deal to throw it away every month, but honestly......

I just wish I had enough money to buy something like that

But now most MP games are lagging even when using 2D mode :cheesy:

Gratz man! Well done.
 
youve proabbly got a better Pc than if dell hadn't screwed you over, so think of it as a blessing in disguise. but 2 months with no PC woudl be very bad..

Im jealous - I was going to build myself a new PC this summer, but my car died, and my wife and I decided to splurge a little on the replacement, (it was only $10,000) so no comp for me :( - but at least she looks good driving around :)

Maybe next summer (by then it will be time to look for a house)
