Mike: about the tradeoff bet. tax and S&H cost: when PC cost less than $1300, there will be no tradeoff for the states where sale tax is 6% or below, because the lowest shipping charged by computer manufactures is around $80 for a monitor and hard disk. And a lot of them charge more than that. For sub-1000 pc, it is definitely cheaper and more convenient to buy in stores. I think that may be another reason for dell's reluctance to go into this market. Even if they match the price in store, the cost is still higher because of s&h.
