DaveSimmons Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 That is a sweet deal for a non-gaming laptop. The Pentium M runs cool but fast, and 1 GB RAM will give great performance for Office, photo editing, etc. including faster switching between tasks. It also has built-in wifi, enough disk space to keep your music collection on it with plenty of room for applications. The only thing I'd recommend adding is the extra $10 for recovery CDs.

Trying to convince myself not to pick one up, just as a beater.
sde219 Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 How does the E1505 compare to the E1405? They were the same price during this promotion. The E1505 has a larger screen but some add-ons were more expensive on it. I ordered the 1405 on Sat but I still have time to cancel and get the 1505. Any advice?

RossMAN Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 sde219, The LCD display is something I would not skimp on, IMHO it's one of the most critical components. That being said I would cancel your E1405 order and order an E1505 with SXGA+ display.
mrn8 Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 The Logitech Harmony 880 is ~$100 through today's deal. Nice price on an awesome universal remote.
Scott Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 The Logitech Harmony 880 is ~$100 through today's deal. Nice price on an awesome universal remote.Yeah... that one is tempting even though I already have the 680.
DaveSimmons Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 Last day, and a good laptop deal if you want a (big!) 17" screen. Add the Radeon X1400 for $99 if you want to play any games. Or the geforce 7900 for $299 to play at much higher resolution and with more visual effects / "eye candy" If you want a smaller screen, look at the Inspiron coupon lower on the GD main page and get an E1505 instead.
