Just bought new desktop!

emachines t3882: Intel celeron D 335(2.8GHz) 533 FSB; 256MB; 80GB, XP home, DVD/CDRW combo, 6 usb 2.0; ethernet;56k, intel extreme graphics 2, keyboard/mouse/speakers

picked it up yesterday from office depot. 209$ + tax - 50$ rebate = 170$. (priced as 399$ in circuit city) i don't expect it to be a fantastic computer but should be better than my current 130$ used IBM desktop. i just need a computer for word processing and tiny programming.

i will pick up a used 17" CRT monitor from a friend for free this weekend. soon i will have another desktop la. :-))

BTW, if anyone is reading this blog and lives around lehigh, the Office Depot in white hall area has really cheap stuff!!!! yesterday i bought 3 packs of 6 notebooks (18 totally). it was 0.6$ + tax/6 notebooks. so 18 books were 1.91$. amazing... ah? of coz they're not top quality. but the notebook is thick and good enough for me. i noticed other stuff in very low price there... very surprising... though the manager is a very very talkie guy... another freaking point i feel at that store...
