Inspiron 9400 with XP?
Has anybody ordered a I9400 with XP? The site seems to allow it until
you get to the operating system choice, which is all vista. I thought it might make a nice replacement desktop for when this win95 machine bites the dust, no power consumption and built-in UPS. But not with crippleware on it. -- Ron Hardin On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.

Choose the system, then click on the green "customize with Windows XP" button.... http://www.dell.com/content/products...=04&l=en&s=bsd Stew

I looked at it again, searched all over, no green button. Yet you say there is one. It turns out it doesn't work with Firefox! It shows up with IE. -- Ron Hardin On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.

May be a version thing...... Glad you found it in any event.

All the other buttons work, though. Strange. -- Ron Hardin On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.

It's still not working with my Firefox this morning, with or without hitting reload. It's seriously unhappy about something on the page. -- Ron Hardin On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.
