OT: Thanks. from your link, I was able to find the Canadian Dell deals page by simply changing the US to CA in the URL for the US deals page. From that page, I was able to configure a 1.8Ghz P4 with 512MB for less than 1/2 the price of a 2 Ghz P4 on the regular page. The Canadian deals page won't let me get a 2 Ghz P4 yet, but I suspect that if I'm patient it won't be long. ... and the price on PCs hasn't gone up in the last 20 years. I don't expect it to do so in the next few weeks.
