BigSlama912 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 I heard a rumor that staples will have a HP laptop (i think the g60 series) with 320gb HD 3gb ram, light scribe dvd burner, webcam, and what not for around $299.99 I am trying to confirm this as i also heard that it might have 4gb of ram as well.
Brad Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 doesn't seem that far-fetched. similar spec'd laptops have been in weekly ads all year for $349-399 at various stores, so another $50-100 off on BF wouldn't be out of the question at all.
TazErase Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Never under estimate Staples. They don't usually have the best laptop and computer deals but for external hard drives and other computer accessories they are usually the cheapest, and often well stocked, unlike most other retailers that have 10 in the store just to get you in.
Jen8112 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Not a rumor, off the Staples Facebook page: Hit the savings jackpot when you buy an HP laptop with Windows 7 for only $299.98 after $250 instant savings and $50 easy rebate. That's $300 off! Imagine all the cranberry sauce you could buy with that. Valid Friday, 11/27 from 6am- 10am, US only
amickeyfan Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 I think that is where I will be lined up at
jamieva Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Sweet, if BB doesn't get something in that ballpark, I'll be at Staples
Jen8112 Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Sweet, if BB doesn't get something in that ballpark, I'll be at StaplesI pay $100 MORE for the same laptop at Staples rather than stand in line at BB for 12+ hours!
amickeyfan Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Guess this turned out to be a rumor. The laptop for $299 has a 160 hard drive, not a 350... The laptop that Best Buy had on Saturday was a better deal than this one... and this is an early bird BF special HP 15.6" Laptop w/ 3GB, 160GB, Windows 7 $299.98 here is a list of all the other laptops they have for BF... Dell Studio 15.6" Core 2 Duo Laptop w/ 4GB, 500GB $599.98 HP 15.6" Laptop w/ 4GB, 250GB, Windows 7 $399.98 * HP Core 2 Duo 17.3" Laptop w/ 4GB, 320GB $599.98 * Sony VAIO 15.5" Core 2 Duo Laptop w/ 4GB, 320GB $649.98
Joelltzx Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 These quotes don't have all the info one needs to make an intelligent decision. What processors are in these? What are the hard drive speeds? How much graphics is done in shared memory?
Jen8112 Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 The HP for $299 has an Intel Celeron I think 900 (or 800, hard to read right there) The HP for $399 has an Intel Pentium T4300 The other stuff you probably can't tell without a model number, which if there were one I can't read it!

Jen8112 Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 The one for $400 does in the pic, the one for $300 you can't tell. I would assume they both do, I don't know of a laptop that doesn't. Could be wrong though. The one I bought today at BB for $250 does.

Jen8112 Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 That WAS last year. Yours also didn't have Windows 7! Unless we have a model number there is no way to be sure! :)
bigjimslade Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Since the ad is posted there is no need for the rumor thread. You can chat about any BF laptop @ Staples at the link below. http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=156778
