Why all the reds? Is it because you don't want to share the saving with other? Or is it too much work to save $140?

Its because there's a thread for Live Search CashBack already. And if you go around listing everything deal with 30% off, well, technically you can have a thread for every single item in eBay.

That's why its red. Potential for seriously crap load of threads when 1 thread would do.

However, since I don't follow the other official Live Search CashBack thread, I did appreciate the 30% off "repost" earlier (that's since been locked). But I guess I'm being hypocrite now. Oh well.

Ghatid said: I don't think you can still use the MS Live discount, at least not 30%.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

30% is still valid.

clearanceman said: Green because the 30% could end any time and I didn't think about using it for a notebook.

I did.....plus a ton of other stuff last night and today Only thing here is..don't settle for the 80gb model....I got a 160gb version for about $20 more

This looks like a terrific deal. Anyone been successful with this MS Live business? Any catches?

Gee why not make a thread for every BIN item on eBay.....RED!! and in before lock.

amheck said: I got in on an 1000H last time around. Paid $599 from Mwave.com, but had a 10% paypal coupon and 25% MS CB. So I think I came in right around $400. But yeah, this is a super nice deal.

1000H - not really my idea of an everyday computer, but it's kinda cool and neat.

I purchased the same laptop from Mwave through eBay a little over 2 months and cashed out my $120 Live last week. This new deal is hard to pass up, thus I bought another.

AWESOME DEAL!.

thanks OP.

I got one for $489-$143
= ~$346

I just sold my S10 yesterday for a $40 profit. because of it have smaller battery, smaller HD, no BT.
but I like the build quality and design of it though.

this is a hot deal!

BTW: I never used live CashBack before and I went thorough all the steps and got the discount.
how would I go about getting my live Cash Back and how long does it takes to clear?

Got it figured out Thanks OP been waiting for this Thanks

how many times can u buy stuff with the 30% CashBack?

because I'm interesteding in geting another item. (not the same thing) a PDA.

I hear that MS can denied your $ if they think you are abusing it....

I don't want to end up paying full price for my 2nd purchase.

ok I just place 2 separate buy it now
for the patirot 32gig SSD.

will they see that as a problem? I hope they are smart enough to know that I am using both for a Raid setup and not resell.

What's with boiwithnolife going down the list and giving everyone red? too poor to buy one of his/her own and jealous?

Was about to pull the trigger on the Lenovo S10, glad I didn't. Keyboard is 93% on this, which is great compared to other netbooks. Agree with everyone else about the poor placement of the right shift key.

same thing thing with shift key on the leveno s10. also this the s10 don't have a cntrl key on the R side... this one does.

rootbeer13 said: it seems the Linux version is almost $100 less than the XP... not sure if it is worth the trouble putting XP on it on my own.

Warning..the Linux version that is 1000HD does NOT have the ATOM N270 inside. Instead it has the older celeron chip which is inferior to the ATOM chip. It it NOT worth it to save money on that model IMO.

any idea how long it takes for CashBack from eBay to show up in your account?

thanks..i found out. there couple other things one needs todo.

I got one from ZZF too but am regretting it because of the tax I had to pay I have an MSI Wind on the way too so I'm debating which one I should hold onto. I hear ppl like the Wind aesthetically and ergonomically but that upgrading the ram/HD voids the warranty Ugh, stuck between a rock and a hard place now. The 1000H arrived yesterday and is just sitting there WAITING to be opened (there's a stupid seal I have to break to open it). Returns incur a 15% restocking fee, so I'd most likely need to just eBay this thing. UGHH!! What a pain...

I got in the ZZF deal, too...which sucks. Their restocking fee is horrible considering they charge you 15% of purchase price even if you refuse shipment. Could've saved almost $150 using Live CB, oh well. For those that ordered through ZZF, did you have to sign for the package?

I got my 1000H today. it is NOTICEABLY larger and thicker than the Lenovo S10. I don't have it side to side to compare since I sold the S10 already.

the 1000h have better hardware but it is bigger and thicker. and doesn't look as nice and slick as the S10.

going to sell my 1000h for a little profit. (wish I have kept my S10 but I don't need an extra laptop right now as I already got a 1330xps already)

I'll just wait until a S10 that have 6 cell battery and Bluetooth to come out then I'll get the S10 again. hopefully prices will drop alot by then

bnbhoha said: remember to update the alc269 realtek audio driver. My 1000h speakers weren't loud at all until I did and I also turned up the eq to the fullest setting. Now it's pretty loud. google alc269 driver. My version is 5.10.0.5680 click on the realtek icon on tray and then click on the I on the left hand corner to see your driver number. good luck
My version is 5.10.0.5708

Those who tried to use MS CashBack on eBay and still applied eBay or Paypal coupon (or ask sellers for partial discount) will take a BIG RISK. According to MS CashBack policy (section 14 or 17), the CashBack will be invalid when applied to coupon or discount items. I know someone who received an email from MS and was told that the payment was invalid when they tried to cash after 60 days. Good luck.
