    Does any one know the differences between 3220H1 (sold at Staples) and 3225HS (sold at Microcenter and Circuit City). They have the same specs what I can see. Please help before I go out and buy one tomorrow. Thanks[ :)]

    For a few dollars more, in the 3225HS you get an extra 256MB RAM.

    The difference should be no more than $50 in price, IMHO.

    The MSRP difference is $50...no telling what individual merchants are doing though.

    Very true. I was only advising the original poster that the 3225H should be no more than $850 (including any rebates, etc).

    The difference is much more than $50. the upgrade costs at least 99$ and you have to purchase the whole 512 mb ram, you cannot add just another 256 mb. and i think the difference in speed made it well worth the cost.
