We’re getting two new computers. Yes two. I’ll be ordering my Mac Mini this week. I’m going with the Core Solo configuration, 1.25 GB of RAM, 60 GB of hard disk and SuperDrive (CD-DVD DL Burner). I’m also gettin an empty NewerTech Mini Stack in wich I’ll pu the other 60GB hard disk that is currently in my G4. No keyboard, no mouse, no monitor as the ones I do have are still fine.

The second computer wi going to be a Dell Dimension 1100. It has a 2.66 GHz Celeron D, 521 MB of RAM, 160GB of hard disk, combo drive and Windows XP Home. It comes with keyboard, mouse and pc speakers, no monitors though. A friend found me a link for a superb deal for that setup: $299 + taxes, no shipping. That’s comes for a total of $343! When I saw the price and compared it to the Mini I admit I cringed a little but I do want a Mac.

    Yup… Nathalie found a similar deal last week. Maybe I’ll upgrade my PVR sooner than I expected. Pentium hardware is getting dirt-cheap.
