I would just order the 8200 since Dell computers are fully upgradeable you can always get the latest stuff for it. Take care, Gary

Well if they jump it up to the "8300", they'll run out of numbers very quickly.
My guess is it will be the 8250, with integrated motherboard USB 2.0 and Firewire ports, dual channel DDR RAM, and a P4 3.0 gig processor with a 533Mhz FSB.
Just my guess
