The FS website says the computer comes with Media Centre Edition, but does it come with the Media Centre remote? If I want to get a Media Centre Edition TV tuner and remote, how much would that run me?

[BlueMax]

No remote. No TV tuner.



But if I didn't get such a good deal from Dell, I'd almost be miffed that this Acer deal is even better!

I say, YES, it's a good deal!

The pic posted by FS has the remote. It doesn't say anything about it in the descriptions though.

[Sashimi23]

I don't need the monitor...if I get this, do you guys think FS would lower the price in echange for not getting it? How much of a discount would be good, considering it retails for $279 on their site?

i'm better off getting the package & selling the monitor privately then.
