Post by: AntiHero on January 10, 2008, 06:09:58 PM

If i win the action, i'll have a Dell XPS (i know, i hate dell but hear me out) 600 dollars to 800 dollars for an XPS with an 8600gt, 2 gigs of ram and a 2.2 ghz dual core.

you got 4 days left and about 75% of the bids are placed in the last 5 min =/. Let me know how it goes. if you manage to get it for 6-800 that would be a steal. I remember if you're interested there are some free service sites that will place a bid on an item for you within the last section of the auction so nobody has a chance to enter a bid after you. (assuming they're not using the service as well)

Well, someone bought it out privately, cause he shut off the auction today. UNFIAR! Now i have to choose between one without an OS, or one with a 7900gtx...
