I just picked it up a few minutes ago open box for $1,357 fair condition. I'm in Florida so that qualified for no tax and best buy is giving a $75 reward plus about 15 percent back if you apply for the card. Pc came with charger and it looks like it has a tiny little dent at the top, other than it looks super clean and I will be testing it today.

I did this as well in Florida. Grabbed an open box - excellent for $1453 which put me into tax free zone, additional $100 savings.

16gb is definitely not enough in 2025 but with the money I saved in taxes plus $75 reward and open box discount. That will buy me up to 64gb of ram and 2tb ssd on the second slot.

"Useless" is a bit of hyperbole. Suboptimal, for sure. Nice to know it's upgradable.

Plus you'll get a $75 reward, with the money you saved just upgrade the ram and add a 2tb ssd. That is exactly what I'm doing.

I just checked and it applies automatically within a couple of weeks if you have Bestbuy total. I have it because of all my electronics that my kids and I buy there.
