Said out of stock when I tried to do an order. (

damn that does look like a sweet deal. too bad it doen't come with a monitor or i probably would of bought it.

Not bad thats about what I spent on my custom job a little over a year ago. Mine has the same specs better graphics so I don't know I think that you could do better. Plus its ugly.

it's a nice deal for the ones who're too lazy to build their own or don't know how.

Together they could cost between $150 and over $1000 depending on what you want. www.newegg.com is probably the best (and cheapest) place to buy.

Wow..they're pretty expensive for the CPU alone. I was looking for the combo, not really sure if I can upgrade my Dell's CPU with the orignal motherboard.

monarch computers has some pretty nice combo deals and no tax and shipping to california

i found tigerdirect.com has some pretty decent prices, and there's always ebay.....my sisters boyfriend built a computer about 3 years ago, and it finally blew up a few months ago after never being turned off......oh well, at least I got a new laptop out of it

Muahaha I GOT IN! w00t, I was going to post this too but when I tried to buy a second one it didn't work doh... You can sell these things easy for 600-800 dollars.

damn for 500, ill just take the paypal off the trainn desktop site and buy that.

the only good deal for a gateway is someone paying you to take it.

I got a Gateway that has been running for over 4 years, so I think they're okay. Got a chuckle out of that comment though. D
