    Got mine too!

    A well needed upgrade from my old celeron monster. Everything is fast and lovely.

    I need one of those floppy drive brackets, but it's a bit pricey @ £9. Gonna try and do a DIY job somehow.

    do u know if it invalidates the warranty if you open it? That's why I bought the USB instead

    It definitely doesn't invalidate the warranty :)

    Besides, there are no warranty seals on the base unit so they wouldn't know if it's been opened anyway. I've added a DVDROM and DVDRW, IDE card and Firewire card. Just need to sort that floppy out.

    And the manual describes how to add/remove components, too :)

    I kinda feel bad that I bought it - It is thoroughly pointless - I ALREADY have 2 Computers and about 5 Laptops...My main box is WELL more l33t than the Dell - 3.2 GHZ , 1 Gig Paired Corsair TwinX1024LL Platinum Pair, 74 Gig Raptor, M-Audio Revolution 7.1 Sound, Creative Labs Megworks S700...

    Does anyone know whether there is a reciept or invoice in one of the boxes somewhere? I'd like to sell mine (only because of the fact there's no AGP), but I'd like to sell it 'sealed' , but don't want to give away anything confidential like a receipt or something

    Cheers

    Nothing in the boxes

    Be sure to remove the labels on the outer boxes though, as they have order info that can be tracked on the web.

    btw - if it's a TFT system I might be interested for my bro
