Dell Deals (not spam)

A big thanks to Milo for posting this. I ordered this morning and got my laptop for under a grand. Ended up with a 6000 1.5 with a WUXGA screen.

I am finally making the conversion from a mac so that I can play somewhere other than pokeroom. Hopefully, my bonuses will help cover the cost pretty quickly.

Thanks for everyone's help!

Wow, this deal was AWFUL. Normally these have been very hot, with good discounting. Today the preconfigureds that they let you use had the prices articificially jacked up. No savings to be had here (Or atleast very little).

See the fatwallet thread regarding this deal. What a letdown.

Now, I wanna poke my eyes out after reading that. I never impulse buy until this morning....

tilt creeps in...

I wouldn't get too busted up. If you got a good laptop for under 1k, then its a good deal. I'm just saying this is nowhere near as hot as the previous ones. =)

It is still a helluva deal to get a fully loaded laptop for around $1000... Who knows, they may never run the $750 off again, so I couldn't wait around and end up getting stuck paying $1500 plus for a nice laptop.

Yeah, my buyer's remorse has passed. It ended up only being 960 with a WUXGA screen, bag, mouse, 3 years accidental care (good choice for me), and shipping.

I am ready to hit some new rooms. Pokeroom only (for my mac) is getting old. Now, I just have to tell the wife unit.
