Also got my $20 rebate these past few weeks (4 or 5 months after the purchase).

Computer City - what a coup! CPU's not graceful but I'm getting a feel for how they got to be the #1 computer retailer. American Pro will soon be knocking on Dell's front door.

Jab, jab, jab, right-cross.

Best of luck,

Steve
