Help me find/configure whatever the best deal on 17" Inspiron Notebook

 

I am having trouble with the Dell website on this rig I'm using so need a link to the deal or the E-value code.

 

I know there is 20% off $999 right now.(J2LPP883X25918)

 

I would like to get the Core 2 Duo processor...1g RAM and CDRW/DVD(or even DVDRW)

 

Thanks,

Jeff

Well...I have found a good price($949) on a Core Duo 17" but holding out for Core2 Duo.

 

Dell Inspiron E1705 Single Core Notebook Computer (E1705S1_4) - Core Duo T2250 1.73GHz/80GB/1GB ....$949

That's what I would do and wait for a sale + coupon = more savings

Oh, my, I really need a new puter so I guess I will break down and buy one (on sale or not).

 

I have a Dell guy getting me a quote on this E1705 with the Core 2 Duo. I will let you guys know what I come up with.

 

<<watch them go on sale as soon as I buy...LOL>>

I hope the Dell sales rep gives you at least a 20% discount, otherwise it's a COLD deal.

Yeah, he says the 20% off $999 coupon will apply.

 

But, of course, re-configuring with the Core 2 Duo processor (T7200) is gonna run the price up.

 

Wish I wasn't in a hurry and could just wait for the right sale + coupon but my main machine has blown the mobo and I am not spending another dime on it. I am using an antique I had in the closet right now.

Choosing to upgrade to the Core 2 Duo processor is a good idea and should help resale value in the future.
