$699 PC + Printer
Saw this on the front page of Target Catalogue this week:
Mercury PC $699, includes keyboard, speakers and Lexmark Z513 printer.
- Celeron 2.xxGhz*
- 256Mb RAM
- 40Gb Hard Disk
- 56k Modem
- 17″ CRT monitor
- Combo drive (burn CD watch DVD)
- Windows XP Home Edition
- 64Mb integrated graphics
* Can’t read the exact spec on the heavily distorted JPEG file.
Everything housed inside a dodgy-looking black case. Not bad a deal I think, if you can live with possibly sub-standard components. Lexmark Z513 costs around $50, and it prints colour. WinXP Home OEM would cost $100, and I am not sure what kind of computer you can build with $550.
Add another half gig of memory, and it would be a nice buy, if you need a new computer to get through student life. Deal closes 13th of July coming Wednesday.
