Oh it is, I had to log into my old account to see it, damn them! I wish they would've had that when I completed it.

It seems the Gaming system comes without an OS/Software, but has a decent video card, but it's AGP, and the Dell system is PCI-E, so if I got a better card......my head hurts. )

hmm I really like the Turbo-X just because it's an AMD
and I can use my old ram on it and it has a bigger HD

now I really have to get my last 3 referrals

Eek!

I have 9 referrals, and chose the Cyberpower PC, and now the picture is a red x placeholder, and the mouse over text box is empty! o

I'm not changing it....I should get what I asked for.

So you didn't order it?

Nah, and that's why I may be screwed. I just chose it when it became available, but still have 9 refs.

If Gratis has a heart, they'll uphold their promise, and fufill orders for people who chose it, even before the approval/order phase.....I hope.

that's not how it works
once you get your 10 referrals and get approved you'll be asked to choose one of the desktops to get

Actually, you can choose before completion too.

The issue, is whether they'll accept my choice or not. (

I think they only let you choose before completion to make you think you're REALLY going to get a free computer and it's going to come like next week or something. It's a selling point for them.

Well, by having it like that, they give the customer the choice early on, and if they do that, it should go without saying they'll send that product.

They shouldn't have that drop-down menu until completion, unless they're gonna hold to it....

trust me you don't actually "choose" anything before completion
I had some issues with choosing my FreeFlatScreenif the choice is not available when you make your order you will not be able to choose it and they are in their legal right to only offer those products they offer.

Thing is, if I don't touch it, it stays to that choice when it comes time to order. It's not as if that menu does nothing at all. I'll see what happens come time for me to submit for approval myself, but on principle, they should stick to providing what they offered. (Yeah, yeah, I know the TOS has an "out", but it would be nice if they sent the Cyberpower anyhow) ;)
