    I just got an Inspiron 8500 that is dead. It comes with the computer itself (chassis, motherboard, keyboard, WSXGA screen,etc), but no CPU, memory, or CD/DVD. My question is, I have read that the chassis will support an Inspiron 8600 Motherboard. Is this true? If os I may be upgrading soon...[8D]
