dregerer Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 Did anyone see the laptop in BB's sunday add 450.00 after 300 MIB? It was a compaq presario v2000 series. I am not sure of the exact model...Pretty much standard fare spec wise. Similiar to the BF deals only its got a 14 inch widescreen instead of 15. It also doesnt have the ATI graphics chip. I was looking at picking up an inexpensive laptop and when I checked it out, it looked good to me. But I wanted to get others opinions on it. I also asked about the MIB and the dept manager said it was a BB rebate that I could turn in online. She then, out of the blue, called CS and found out that the rebate center has a 2-3 week turn around currently. She couldnt promise anything... But 2-3 weeks is a whole lot better then 6-8. I was impressed that she went that little extra step.
denisekraemer Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 I already bought it from BB. It has worked perfectly. I bought it 3 weeks ago and got my rebate 5 days ago. I love it.
bubbadawg1 Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 HP was advertising the same laptop in a mailed flyer for $499, however it did not have any sort of internal WiFi. If that is of interest to you, I would confirm that the Compaq from BB has it. Also, it was reviewed by PC World and was considered one of the better low end laptops.
