Okay all, I have been so close to getting a 9300 or XPS for what seems like forever now, and I finally pulled the trigger on a 9300 about 10 minutes ago (how cool is it that the first thing I did was come on NBF?)

I got pretty much the standard setup as everyone else
2.0ghz
1 Gig Ram
6800
XP Media edition
blah blah etc etc
I also added the sound blaster card, and got the free all in one printer, out the door was $1550, thats with tax and shipping, using the 30% off coupon, the $200 coupon, and my 12% epp deal. So for all those wondering if the coupons still work (someone posted a few posts up the 30% doesn't work anymore) I can confirm that they do.
I used
JH31NP82zv8k2k 30%
Z22$QGT5CW$$L8 $200 off
The best part of all this is what I am upgrading from - a 4 year old inspiron 2600 with 128m ram, 1.4 celeron


Think my new machine will be just a bit faster?

So one more thanks to all on the forum who helped in my decision without even knowing it, you guys rock
