So what happens if we get the monitor, and it is defective? Will we
have to pay for the return shipping when doing the exchange?

Here is what I think we will order. Total comes out to about $740
including tax. Pretty good deal, right? Will confirm with my parents
tonight. Thanks to everyone who's helped with all my questions the
last few days.

You have chosen to not include a dedicated graphics card. Is this by choice, or have you made a mistake? I would absolutely want at least a 128 MB card in that machine. I have basically the same unit, an Inspiron 530, with nearly the same hardware you have chosen. But I got mine with a 128 MB ATI graphics card. I certainly suggest a dedicated video card.
