    Please read the following FAQ before posting:

    • Can this be ordered online?

      No, this is only be available at your local Micro Center B&M

    • Where can I find a list of Micro Center stores?

      Store Locator

    • When does this sale begin?

      The day after Christmas, Tuesday December 26, 2006 8:00 AM - 10:00 PM.

    • Do you think there will be a line?

      Yes but the lines probably won't be as long as BF since this hasn't received a lot of media attention and Micro Center doesn't have stores nationwide.

    • What time should I get in line?

      That's up to you and how badly you want this, what if you arrive at 4AM and there's already 40 people in line?

    • How many laptops will each store have?

      There are only 10 laptops allocated per store.

    • Do I have to sign up for AOL, Compuserve, Vonage or any other "offer" to get this deal?

      No. The only catch is you should get there early and the $50 mail in rebate, that's it.

    • Where can I find the complete specifications?

      The closest I could find was this.

    Thanks to ActuaryTm for originally posting this in the laptop for under $400 thread :D

    Call Dell at 1-877-345-8756 before 9:00 PM CT press options 2, 2, 2, and 1 and ask for Dell Small Business sales. When you order they'll ask for a business name.

  3. Hi,

    We paid $843.20 shipped. Now I see I need Microsoft Word and I need to buy a wireless router.

    Dell sells the router for $45.95-$10 mail in rebate. I just hope he bought the right laptop for the high school senior.

    Do you have an e-mail with the complete specifications? If you do can you copy/paste it here?

     

    Depending on the other components, you got a luke warm deal.

     

    Here's what I would have done:

    1) Buy this laptop for $649.

    2) Add Microsoft Works Suite 2006- Includes MICROSOFT WORD plus much more! [add $79] or buy Microsoft Office Students 2003 for $149

    3) Linksys WiFi router for $49.99 AR with free shipping

    4) Printers are cheap you can buy them for $29 - $89.

     

    $777.99 with free shipping includes laptop, Microsoft Word and wireless router :)
