"DEll overpriced?!"
Pros: Good system
Cons: Method used by Cnet reviewers for different pricing structures among various companies!
Summary: I don't get this at all! I understand that a reviewer cannot look at future pricing points for a product at the time of review, but Dell ALWAYS gives rebates on all its products after a month or so of launch. I cant imagine someone just buying a Dell product at the initially stated rate. This puts it at a disadvantage in a price comparison with other systems that have different pricing models. For example, the other extreme of pricing is Apple or Sony products that do not change at all throughout their life. So, how do you give points depending on this inequity? I have both apple products and Dell's and they are both great. At launch Apple has a good price point that diminishes rapidly with time, and Dell is a little pricier at launch but rapidly becomes cheaper with time! So, I think that it is unfair to give bad review based on pricing point at launch alone
