I knew somebody would jump all over that and give me some slack about it, actually, that is why I posted it

Before, I wasn't a huge fan of Dell myself, but at my current job we are locked into Dell through state contract, so I work with 100's of them on a daily basis, and have had very little issues with any of them.

That said, this man in 89 years old, and uses his computer to get online to check a few stock prices through Yahoo Finance, read the news on CNN.com and send an occasional email. So for all the more he uses it, the $300 entry level Dell is a deal that can't be beat for his needs. I couldn't come even remotely close to putting him together a system for that price.

Funny, we are in the exact same situation here in Oklahoma, with the same results. The Dells have proven reliable and durable enough for our purposes. As for their usefulness, that's where we the Code Monkeys come in, generating custom applications for Office users. No complaints.

Actually, the Tandy 105 printer had 8 pins. The head had 9 holes, but only 8 of them were filled.
