Hi to All !!!

This is a great site with great people in the saving.

Is there a way to find out how many laptop will be at the Los Angeles County,Calif. at every store for Black Friday ?

Should I camp a day before at the store to get the deal?

 

Thanks a lot$.

It's not a matter of how long you've been a member. You need more posts. It's to discourage spammers.

Looks to me like this is: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8045162&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050028&id=1158317339111

 

Exact specs, starting price, etc. I see this one is a Media Center laptop as well. That makes this insanely hot.

 

I see you can buy it now, has anyone tried to pricematch during the 5am-12 doorbusters for something they bought prior?

 

Here is HP specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00771096&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=3253922&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

Mmmm...I wish I could price match it so I wouldn't have to deal with the line, but I'd still have to try to get in there. I went by BB today to do my Black Friday recon and that HP notebook is pretty nice, I just wish it was a Core Duo, but I'm still gonna go after it.

Do you know if it is within their policies to pricematch then (doorbuster 5am-12)?

i played around with their amd x2 model, same thing basically but different specs. seems like it was built pretty nicely though the screen border feels like cheap plastic.

 

i'd get one if i wasnt so hooked to osx :(. no apple deals :mad:

You can run OSX on Intels now with a small patch, just an FYI.

 

Anyone know about pricematching?

This is in fact against the Apple OSX EULA.

A. This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time.

Although it is fine to discuss that it is possible, this is not the thread for that. In addition, please do not post any information on "how" to achieve this.

OK. I'm sorry I brought it up. It's not appropriate here. Thanks for removing that post.

Where are you getting 1024mb of RAM? Is that from the Ad? Both links indicate it's 512mb upgradeable.

Are you thinking in Vista OS?

This is the gickmick for this sale since new computers in January will come with the new OP and requiere 2Gb of RAM

Be aware of your short saving for the long run,pals !!!

Windows Vista ONLY requires 512MB Ram

 

Every computer that you get the "coupon" for upgrade IS Vista compatible out of the box.

512 in the Minimum requirement. For it to run smoothly you are going to need at least a 1GB

Does anyone know if the price on this laptop will be the same in Wisconsin as it is everywhere else, or will it be a lot higher, like the walmart laptop a while back?:confused:

I just saw a high-resolution scan, and the HP is definitely 512mb of RAM. (Rules say I can't post a link.) There's another HP with 2048mb, but I don't think it's a doorbuster. I don't know where the 1024mb rumor came from.

 

This news is very disappointing. I probably won't bother getting there so early now. It seemed like a much better deal with 1024mb. I just need a laptop for word processing and web surfing, but I'd like to have enough RAM to never worry about it again. Plus, I might want to upgrade to Vista one day and don't want to be running the bare minimum. :(

512mb is MORE then enough for word proc and web browsing. Plus, when you do decide to upgrade to Vista, a ram upgrade would be cheap and easy to come by.

there is a coupon in the box with the laptop? does the coupon offer a upgrade at a discounted price?

do you know about how much adding Ram would cost for a laptop?

 

Thanks!! :fluffy:

There will be coupons with the computers for the Vista upgrade. If you are going to get RAM for the laptop I would grab that before you get in line for the laptop. The RAM goes fast on BF.

hmmm, I have a situation for you guys....

 

I need a laptop, and have heard that the BB 379 one will be the best.... But There is a very high chance of not getting one. Should I just get the Staples Turion 399 one?
