Kidding me? Ladies are keen in financial matter, no go pulling the wool over their eyes here

But it is being promised that we can arrange that. Now the question is how to get one over here from the states.

Sure we have DELL/Alienware service here in Hamburg. But my Dell preferred account is for the states.

I ran through the configuration (choice of Red, Black and Lunar Silver) with QX9300, 3-yrs support (this is a cheat that Europeans are looking into - law is a 2-yrs of the bag, they only offer 1), 1920x1200, 2xGDDR3 GTX 280M

.... €2900!

cheers ...

Just do it man! You know you deserve it. You work so hard to provide for you and your lady, its nice to treat yourself to something like this. Think about it this way, you figure you'll keep that computer for the next 3 years:

Can you afford $3 a day? Because for $3 a day, a new M17X can be YOURS!

tbayer is a n00b, but everyone loves n00bs!
This may be a dumb question, but I recently purchased an m17x, how can I find out what processor's the motherboard can handle? Is there a list somewhere, or will any core2 duo, or quad core work? How about i7 is it a different chipset? (I switch from hardware supprt to programmer about 4 years ago, A LOT changes in 4 years!!!)

Thanks
