    Chalk up another reason to not buy a Dull er...Dell. My neighbor ordered a Dell, but she cancelled the order. Dell found out that AK is Alaska, not Arkansas , and tried to gig her big extra bucks for shipping. She ended up ordering a pretty nice Duron PC from ABS Computers with some nice upgrades and shipping for $885.00, delivered yesterday. It's a nice unit.

    I see that earlier on this week somewhere (not on the InqWell) and thought how long it would be before someone mentioned it

    What a crock of horse manure!!!!! if other board & system manufacturers can supply the required power throught the 3.3v then they sure can without need for any proprietory modifications. As for the air-flow situation, that is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.
