If you buy a pre-built system go with dell. They are the best. Go with the Dimension 8200. It kicks ass.
Some options:
1.) 1 Year Limited Warranty plus 1 Year At-Home Service
2.) 2 Year Limited Warranty plus 2 Year At-Home Service
3.) 3 Year Limited Warranty plus 3 Year At-Home Service
4.) 4 Year Limited Warranty plus 4 Year At-Home Service
5.) 1 Year Limited Warranty plus 1 Year At-Home Service and CompleteCare
6.) 2 Year Limited Warranty plus 2 Year At-Home Service and CompleteCare
7.) 3 Year Limited Warranty plus 3 Year At-Home Service and CompleteCare
8.) 4 Year Limited Warranty plus 4 Year At-Home Service and CompleteCare
Everyone I know goes with option 3 (3 Year Limited Warranty plus 3 Year At-Home Service).
That's also what I have. So far its great. I had a motherboard, sound card, graphic card, and modem replaced for free when they got struck by lighting.
Only thing is that I hope you want a P4.
