John, Your need to be right in every particular is rather amusing, insults are not.

You wrote >The other problem I see is that if you DO want to add peripherals, they cost MORE than if you just ordered a box with the peripheral built IN. Case in point - if you order an LS120 floppy drive in a Dell Dimension system, you can upgrade from the included floppy drive for 65 bucks. However, if you want an LS120 floppy drive for the web PC, Dell will gladly sell you one for 160 bucks. < You clearly imply here that upgrading a Dimension for $65 and adding on to a webpc for $160 are equivalant, therefore it costs more to get said drive for the webpc than for the Dimension. Your implication is clearly wrong because they are NOT equivalant. That was and is my only point. I leave it to the reader to decide who is THICK HEADED.
