Lippsman- computer question

Another computer thread..


What do you think of

THIS

To me the components seem WAY expensive and the guts of the computer are just intel components, nothing snazzy.

Any specific technical reason to purchase this versus another brand that has the same insides and might run less?

200 bucks to upgrade to 2gig memory is a ripoff and the upgrade to the higher duo core processor seems pricey too.

Here is one last question. I know DELL plugs in many functions into the motherboard, does having the duo core processor increase speed even if that is the case? And if Toshiba doesnt do that, how do they get the other tasks performed if not plugged into the motherboard?

Thanks as usual
