Ordering from Dell small business?

Well i keep on seeing these nice deals on Dell desktops from websites such as techbargains.com , but they link to Dell's small business site. Are there any limitations to ordering from this website? Or can any person order through this website presuming that you just provide a company name?

Really? That's it? So that will also work with the mail in rebates and such?

Thanks!

Yes that's it. As if they're going to ask you to fax them your business license, or they'll turn down your order ...

reliability is a weird term in computers.

at my work, i only buy dells. that's because we have a contract with them and we get a great deal on stuff and automatically get a 3 year warranty plan.

remember, computers (and their parts) will fail at the worst time.

backup, backup, backup....

it's not like they are using crappy parts. case and mobo are their custom design.

parts are name brand. like video cards and speakers.

some video is built into the mobo. ditto sound.

like my dimension 8200. nvidia geforce card with a santa cruz turble beach sound card.

hard drives you really cant spec since they can change on the fly. just their way of doing business, the JUST IN TIME...

sure, people will say XXX brand is the best.

i buy machines for work, so it's not really the important.

now my gaming machine, that's a diff subject.
