about 500 bucks. Friends will be using it only for surfing the net, writing documents, watching a few dvd's, and playing solitare; but mainly surfing the net. Anyone know if this thing is worth anything or not?. I hate dell as much as the next guy, but can't seem to find the real q17's and i'm going bugeyed looking at all the lcd posts of people having problems. I told them to get a crt, but they want a lcd, any suggestions for under 600 that won't be used for games but will look very nice to the eyes? Anyone know anything about this dell model? What is their return policy, how hard etc...
