Brad Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Our Dell rep just called to say they are having some nice deals tomorrow: Starting at midnight CT tonight, they have an Inspiron 530 desktop with a Core 2 Quad processor and 3GB of RAM for $499. Choice of Vista or XP. Regular price on these is over $800. Starting at 7am CT tomorrow, they will have an Inspiron 1525 laptop w/ Intel Core 2 Duo T5450 Processor, 3GB RAM, 160GB HD, webcam and more for $699. This system is usually around $1100. I'll have full details posted in this forum and on the main site when the deals are available, but I thought I'd give a heads-up :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonghornMomma Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 That DT sounds like a smoking deal. I was able to get in on the $359 one, but had I not, I would have been on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susiestar Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I hope we get more of these specials in the next week or so. I need a new computer for the kids' schoolwork. Our desktop is just to old to keep up. That and my dh's stupid games have slowed it down tremendously. No $$$ to pay until the tax refund gets here next week. Oh Well.

shopping mom Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Would this laptop be good for my son for college? I would be willing to upgrade the processor if needed and I want it to write and burn cd/dvds. If someone wants to build one for fun and send me what you think I should get and the price feel free I would appreciate the help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone wants to build one for fun and send me what you think I should get and the price feel free I would appreciate the help!!The processor is more than adequate and it has the CD/DVD burner, so really there wouldn't be anything you'd have to upgrade in this model.

Marcster Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 was ready to have son order desk top but no monitorYou can use your current monitor, add a monitor to your order, or buy a monitor separately... Oh, and folks, if you are getting the desktop, I strongly suggest either adding a video card to your order or adding one after you get the desktop. It would be a cryin' shame http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Sad%20Upset/cry1.gif to saddle a great processor like the Quad-Core Q6600 to onboard Intel graphics. Talk about a bottleneck. http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Alcohol/bot.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
