They are having a deal of the day for the next 10 days. This is the first one advertised. Not bad specs, needed one for my daughters birthday coming up.
I see BCB coming up at 10% for Dell with search for key word "Inspirion 15" -- makes for a great deal here...
Interesting deal. The Mini comes with a 3-cell battery for that price, it is $35 to upgrade to a 6-cell.
Also, more of a tech question I guess, but the default configuration for the 15" laptop is 3GB of dual channel RAM. How is that possible? I've never seen 1.5GB RAM sticks, and I doubt this machine has 4 slots. With a laptop with two slots, wouldn't your options be 2GB or 4GB of dual channel, or 3GB in single channel?

There is an upgrade option to 4GB. I would think the 3GB default option would not be running in dual channel. Not a big deal, I'm just confused by the claim.
Edit: specs specifically say "Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English"
Both in cart and mini i still $249.00 and apparently only free s/h on the larger.

I couldn't find the 10% BCB. Any help? I am new to using Bing so I'm not sure how exactly to use it. I searched Inspiron 15 but it seems to be bringing up mostly eBay auctions for that model.

They are using a highly sophisticated technology called "2+1=3"

you must be configuring your order with the $399 notebook in your cart then, i.e., next component, and eventually you will come upon the offer of the netbook for $149. or u can pass on the offer if u dont want it

i think this offer SMOKES in comparison to the Wal mart emachines notebook offer from this past week, which was for $298 with no webcam, which one can add on the Dell for $25.00 or not add and just use the one on the netbook which is included, a better name laptop with a netbook thrown in for an extra $149

Is the next component seen after the other is in your cart? Or while you are finished configuring it and before you add to your cart. Either way, I do not see it.

On the 15" lappy it shows that it is included.
Nevermind....just read upstream that it is included. Thanks.
RE: just read upstream
It may be up for you, but for me it is downstream.... I get newest post at the top. MUCH more convenient

I think if you don't need the mini10v, this the $449 for studio 17 in SB is better; it has the webcam and 9 Cell bat included, and it's Studio (red). I have one and I really like it.

Then click Bing CashBack, it will show up 10% BCB.

I received the Inspiron in a week or so, but the mini 10v keeps getting delayed. It's set to be delivered on April 16th, but I doubt that since it's been delayed three times already. Anyone else not get theirs yet?
