dell.
I'm getting a dualcore pentium desktop box from them. Nice fast processor, 2 gig of ram, lotta disk. About a grand and no interest on the loan. It's a good deal, especially since I'm replacing a nine year old computer with one that's likely to be overpowered for my needs as a headless linux box for the next nine years. No monitor, no speakers, no "productivity software" or anything like that.
The things you can't opt out of are funny. Everything is a part number, even if it's just a marketing bullet point, probably because their computer system was set up to demand that, so my order included the following

if i ever want a 19" monitor, i think i'm going to buy whatever desktop dell has on sale. because it's like, "buy this $200 monitor and get a computer for $30."
Sounds cool!

The only advantage of the standard Dell monitor being 19" is that you can put it four feet away from you and still make out the giant pixels.
