Dude, it's a dell

I bought a new computer today. It is currently in the process of being "born" at Dell. As much as I love my ASUS W5, it has been about 3 years since I purchased it and I have all but filled the 40G hard drive to it's gills. And since I have a laptop from work, I figured...why not go and commit to a desktop. Pictured above is the 530s ("s" for slim) model Inspiron from Dell...apparently my hatred of fat extends to my computers as well.

I cannot believe how huge this thing is...the advances in the components are frightening. For example, my hard drive is the standard option...but that 320G. Really?? How the hell am I going to fill that?

You had more reasons for upgrading than just the hard drive, right? You could've just swapped in a new, larger drive for ~$100 or added an external drive for around the same $.

Well, it should be less than half...laptops are in a totally different pricing category.

What're you gonna do with the old W5? Give it to Sam?
