This has nothing to do with startup but this deal can be a bargain for a startup developer, or anyone who is looking for a new desktop and a LARGE 27" LCD at a bargain price. Currently, the Dell 27" LCD is selling at $1799 alone. However, I have found a deal found through buckscoop, you can get an extra desktop computer for only $66 more! Be careful though, this deal may finish by Thurday night! To get this deal (modified from the buckscoop source):

1. Click here or go to Dell and enter E-Value code Q240822V-web in the E-Value code box
2. Look down the configuration listing for the monitor section and upgrade from the 22"TFT to the 27" Ultrasharp for $973.50 more
3. Now go to checkout at $2072.40
4. Here we will enter the 10% discount code of 39131CC55486 to reduce the total by $188.40
5. Total price payable inc delivery is now $1865.16

If you buy it for your business/company, don't forget you can claim your GST back too and push the total down to $1695.60. You can read the reviews of the Dell 27" 2707WFP LCD here and here. While the desktop will not run the latest PC games well, it is an alright business desktop for typical word-processing and web browsing tasks - probably good enough for some lightweight web application development too. It has the following highlights:

• Pentium E2160 1.8Ghz (relax, it is actually a basic version of Core 2 Duo branded as Pentium, not a Pentium 4 running at 1.8Ghz, the speed itself is okay for its price, see a review here)
• 2GB Memory
• Windows Vista Business (not your usual crippled Vista Home Basic version, see the comparison here), offers great backup feature for safeguarding your valuable data!
• 250GB hard disk storage
• DVD Burner

You may notice that I provided a different E-value code than the one written from the top of the buckscoop message thread. The reason is that you can get more value - better CPU and 1GB extra of memory for basically ~$12 more. I have prepared the perfect excuse for you to get a massive 27" LCD - you can increase your productivity, see a study by an Apple consultant study here and here. Time to upgrade your 17" LCD NOW! Personally, I have made more than a few purchases from Dell in the past few years and I found the products satisfactory, be it laptops, desktops or LCDs. Also, there is this Total Satisfaction Policy offered by Dell that lets you return the products within 15 days and get full refund (minus delivery cost). But read the fine prints though. Disclaimer: No, I don't earn any commission if you indeed make the purchase...
