Dell Refurbished Deal

[SKYflyer]

What do you guys think about this refurbished deal? I finally found one that has the 7900 GS at a low price!

My only concerns are that it only comes with a 6 cell as opposed to the more powerful 9 cell battery, but I suppose I can buy this later. Also, the processor is only 1.6 GHz Duo Core... will that be able to run the latest games, etc? I suppose I can always upgrade to merom once it comes out, but that's expensive =(

The link didn't work for me. Too long maybe? Clicking on it actually put the '...' in the address bar.

ok I fixed it now I had copied and pasted it from elsewhere without noticing, hehe.

While, I'm posting, I may as well start rambling on (this is unecessary for anyone to read, feel free to skip it, lol). So here I am at 3 in the morning, waiting for my dad to wake up so I can tell him to order it for me (staying up all night = bad, but worth it for this)! I have to stay up all night since the refurbished site says it will remove items in your cart after 15 minutes of inactivity, so every once in a while, I just refresh the page, lol. I'm sure someone would snatch this deal from under me if I wasn't so vigilant =).

I've had 2 scares so far, one when I didnt realize that the drop down menu had the option to see your Dell Home cart and the Dell Outlet cart, so I thought I had lost my deal since I had accidentally gone to the Dell Home cart! Another time, while I was refreshing, there was some sort of server error, and my item didn't appear in the cart for a while. Both times I was cursing and being really frustrated until I was extremely releived to find the item in my cart again ^_^. Hopefully I won't fall asleep all night, and I'll have no more problems!

EDIT: around 4:45 I had another scare! Dell had evilly removed it from my cart!!! Supposedly, it claimed my 15 minute period had ended. I don't think it did, but I wasn't paying close attention to the time =S. Oh well, after some panicking, thankfully no one had added it to their cart, and I got it again =). Anyways, posting this will help me stay awake a bit longer, hehe.

explain? A system configured the same as the one above cost $2400 new according to how I did it. Thus $2400-$750 is more like $1650 for a system that is exactly the same. That is $550 more expensive.
