    I just got back from best buy for the 4th time in 2 weeks and I have somewhat of a final question which may sound dumb...

    Buying the P-6831FX and the FX7024 (24 inch 1080p lcd included) for the total of around $2500-$2600 be a smart idea? I dont know if tax is not included... so that could ruin my plan.

    First off they both match in color... lol
    Then I have power at home and a somewhat pretty powerful notebook for on the go.


    Or should I just get the P-6831FX and get the desktop later when the price gets down if I need the power? Since the gateway is at bestbuy for $1199

    Sorry if I keep rambling on and on about M15x, NP5793 and Gateway

    sorry to interrupt this but was looking at the specs at best buy and I just can't help wondering what they were thinking with this processor and gpu pair? lol.
