February 9 Update: E7400 upgrade option is now gone... congrats to those that got it. The E2200 upgrade for $10 is still there though.
February 6 Update: The E7300 processor has been replaced with the faster 2.8GHz E7400 processor, but the price remains $359 -- very nice!

While the system is no longer available at that price, you can now get a virtually identical system for $359. The difference is that the Vostro 220 now includes a faster E7400 processor, and a DVD-RW drive where the original offer only included a DVD-ROM. Having a DVD-RW drive for another $20 isn't a bad change in our book.
Vostro 220 desktop PC with an Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 E7400 Pentium Dual-Core E2200, 2GB RAM, 160GB hard drive, DVD-RW and Vista Basic for $309
Shipping is free and as with all Vostro systems, there is a 30-day no hassle return policy. If you don't want to keep it, you can return it without having to pay return shipping or restock fees.
