    After reviewing several systems,I decided on the Compaq x6000. What happened to the ati x600 256mg graphics card option. Also, The 60gb 7200 is now $125 updgrade. I beleive is was a $25 upgrade a week or so ago. Anyone know when these two options changed?.

    I am guessing they have some sort on mail in rebate thing going on or something. I have seen similar situations in the past. They make the base model cheaper with a MIR and then jack up the price of upgrades temporarily while the MIR is effective.
