Default FS: Dell Dimension 2400, 2.5 GHz, 90GB hd, 256KB RAM, LCD flat panel monitor

I'm selling my relatively new Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer. I've had it for less than 6 months, but I just got a sick laptop that I plan to use for everything now. Anyway, here are the general specs:

2.5 GHz Intel Celeron processor
256 MB RAM
40 GB primary hard drive
60 GB slave drive installed (93GB total drive space)
DVD drive
16x CD-RW (HP drive, added myself)
3.5" floppy drive (drive and bracket added myself)

Windows XP Professional, MS Office 2003 Professional, and some other software are installed and registered to myself. I believe XP Home is included in the original software bundle.

Looking to get at least $400 shipped, retailed around $600 without the second hard drive, floppy drive, and CD-RW. I can include the standard Dell keyboard. I don't have an extra mouse, but big deal. Monitor not included.

I do have a really nice Planar 15" LCD monitor that I *might* include for an extra $200, or I might sell it separately if someone else takes the tower. In other words, I won't sell just the monitor.

If anyone has any specific questions or wants any more detailed specs, pm me. The tower looks like any dell tower, so I won't bother with a picture unless you can't live without it. I can take a picture of the monitor if anyone is seriously interested.

This computer retailed for close to $600 without the stuff I added. The drives I added cost me close to $200 easy. Office 2003 Professional runs about $325 itself.

I really don't have a bad word to say about the machine. It's fast, and it has never let me down yet. The only reason I'm getting rid of it is that I just bought a sweet laptop and I'm broke as hell!

Also, I added the second hard drive, the cd burner, and the floppy drive (and the stupid bracket I had to buy to make it fit), costing me close to $200 altogether. If anybody would really prefer to not have them, I'll sell the computer without them for $300 shipped, exactly the way it came from the factory.

c'mon people, I need the money!

I suppose I could entertain trades for b-series go-fast parts or 91 CRX suspension, but I need the cash more.

ok, so this one has 300 MHz less (woopie friggin doo), same amount of RAM, a cd burner that may take a whole extra minute to burn a whole cd, an extra 60 GB hard drive, a floppy drive, and a dvd player for $400 shipped.

Most people already have a monitor, so after you sell the half-rate one dell gives you, you might be down to $400, but you still need a dvd drive, a floppy drive, and an extra 60 GB hd (get ready to sink at least $150 into those three), and then you're talking about an equivilant machine.

You can take that deal if you really think it's better.

This thing's also got XP Pro and Word 2003 Pro. Give Dell a call and see if they'll throw those in too.
