Buy it! Buy it! Buy it!

Seriously though, seems like a good deal to me. I would jump all over it.

meh nice deal but i wouldnt pay over 5Bills for a "everyday" laptop.

buy it from him in a month, it will be worth about that much then

I'm going to wait till tomorrow and call.

A coupon code I have for 15% off is not working... a different one I have for 10% is working... but I'd like to get the 15% if I can.

If not, the price I have it for is still valid until the 19th...

I'll be buying a laptop within the next few days...

I think it's a pretty good deal. Just consider what wireless card is in it, as well as the speed of the hard drive. It's probably a 5400rpm drive, which is slow. Also, check what type of video comes with it. Probably onboard video, but which?

Dell is always having some sort of promotions. You can get one of there mini XPS laptops, which are pretty cool, for under 1k. If you shop around you could probaly get a similarly configured laptop for maybe $650.

Excellent price. I can't honestly beat that with my corporate discount through dell right now.

Dell always has the ongoing promotions. They have the 30% off laptops at $1399. So, you could get a $1400 laptop for $980, theoretically.

Seems like a good deal. I would go for it. A Dell similarly optioned out would run over $1k.

INdeed.

No thanks. Not going to pay double the price. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Yeah, I've shopped around. It's hard to find pre-configure with what I want. The high resolution screen and XP Pro, etc...

Yeah, I started out with a budget ~$500-600... then I decided all the laptops in that range would suit my needs... but I'd like to spend the extra $200 to get something that will last into th future a little longer...

Looked at it. Not interested in 14"

Indeed. I've been messing around with dell's configs, and eagle eye-ing coupon codes for about 2 weeks. Similar dell deal is near nine hundred

Thats a lie unless your corporate discount is shit, through Coldwell Banker we get 50% corporate discount off any purchase we make on a desktop or laptop from Dell. And I priced out a similar laptop to what NGSM has and it was like 1100 and that was without any sales on also.
