Strong buy...please don't flame this thread with a "I got a refurb inspiron for $400, this deal is warm" or "I used the $750 off coupon from Dell got a P4 with more crap for less $$".....this deal is pretty good for the time.
If you want to wait till BF, that's fine. If you want to wait till Dell has another end-of-quarter sale, that's cool too. This deal is legitimately pretty warm for the time being...
Don't buy this, Best Buy doesn't want business from us. Unless we want to pay too much they don't want our business. I am happy to cooperate because I think their store sucks.

no no, the gameplan is to drive them under. buy things that make them lose profits.
eventually they will try to eliminate us on a whole by not offering any discounts... and then they will go belly up by the time they figure out they f$@ked themselves .
I agree CC & BB prices suck! but I doubt either of them will go belly-up anytime soon. Unfortunately theres too many people who dont know any better or are willing to pay their exorbitant prices!
Not worth it to have all your friends make fun of you, and strangers throw eggs at you. You'll be an instant amateur/loser. It's worse than being seen in a Daewoo.
It is YMMV tho. At first they say I can not, but after 20 min the store manager come to me, and say he can give me 10% off. It sounds like they really want to get rid off this lappy.
BankruptThem said:Specs says it runs at 1.6GHz. What's up with that?amd chips are rated different than intel. You look at the name, like amd 2800 is comparable to a intel 2.8 ghz..of course there are differences, but thats the simple explanation.
I like BestBuy, dont know what your beef is. Perhaps they "caught you" trying to do a price match and a rebate, or caught you trying to return something that YOU broke from another store? Sorry, that dont fly.
