I am looking to buy a new computer for poker but I can't afford something more than about $800 Canadian and I would prefer something even cheaper. Dell Canada and MDG Computers both offer a decent desktop with a 17" monitor for about $800 including taxes and shipping but I was wondering if anybody knew of any sites that offer better deals or whether I should try to buy the monitor separately. Thanks for any advice.

either scour fatwallet.com, or just buy one an ' outrageous deal (http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/features.aspx/outrageous_desktops?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd) from Dell Small Business. you can sell the flat panel for a couple hundred, leaving you with a cheap, decent PC.

Had you read my original post, you would have seen that I have already been to Dell Canada and mentioned specifically the deal to which you sent me the link.

I read your original post, and the only deal you mentioned was an $800 computer with a 17inch monitor.

the link I sent you has a $300 Dimension with free shipping.

there is also a $600 Dimension w/ 17 inch monitor, with taxes bringing it to $700.
