    If you have a laptop like mine you don't care about your desktop anymore.. If you have a problem with your laptop #1 celerons SUCK and #2 7200RPM hard drive is the only way to go.
    Dell Inspiron E1705:
    Core duo 1.8Ghz
    60Gb 7200RPM hard drive
    8x NEC DVD burner
    2Gb RAM
    17" LCD
    7.5lbs

    the E1505 can be the same specs only 15" and under 2 lbs less weight... also there's the 1405 which is even lighter yet same specs.

    Desktop: Dell Dimension 5150
    3Ghz P4 (can put core 2 in)
    15k RPM SCSI Cheetah HD
    320Gb Seagate
    1.5Gb RAM
    20.1" LCD

    $500 for dimesion + monitor = why build?

    I'm waiting a few months for the new chipset and 800Mhz FSB chips to come out then I buy a new laptop and upgrade to core 2... Don't have a need to upgrade the desktop until core 2's are dirt cheap or I find somebody selling a sweet core duo real cheap.
