A thing to note - the other setup had more videocard options. It might well worth asking about wattage of the PSU in this one.

Does anyone know if they offer price protection? For an extra $50, you get a monitor, 2GB RAM, DVD burner and a PCIe wifi card, it makes the other deal seem like a bad one!

For a more basic budget build, I also noticed this Inspiron 560 (but its not as good value for money as the Vostro 460)...

Inspiron 560 - $339.99 (or $333.19 via EPP)

I'm reading some pretty crappy stories about refusing delivery with the Dell computers. Anybody have any advice on how I can get this exchanged? The original computer I purchased will be delivered tomorrow.

Looks like Dell has cut back on the OS and added a monitor and a $10 discount (see: Vostro 460 $510).

I would have hoped the price would have improved in the past three months compared to that post from the first week of May. And yet it's tempting.

Looks like they've finally removed the $99 shipping fee online. So you can get Airmiles now when ordering: http://www.airmilesshops.ca/shops/airmi ... 6340962876.

There's a 30 day return policy, maybe you can try that (and talk your way out of the 15% restocking fee)?

What does "Mouse included in Bluetooth selection" mean?

Does this system come with bluetooth?
Does it include an extra bluetooth mouse?

Going through the Airmiles shop is a slightly different build...500GB hard drive and I can't simply go with integrated video card. Just trying to get a good but basic system for my parents.
