Yup, I got it to take it earlier-- couldn't pull the trigger though.

Sheesh ... it really is a crap shoot.

I was refreshing throughout the day and suddenly a BLACK mini 6 cell pops up for 249.00 and I tray to add to cart and its gone! Now I can't find anything for less than 299 again...

FINALLY --- GRABBED A BLACK ONE QUICKLY

Wanted the RED but Beggars can't be choosers. I noticed this did not have XP on it... Not a biggie really, maybe the 249 models don't have that...... Looks like I got BLUETOOTH TOO, a nice plus! Thanks for a great deal

Cool, just found one in Promise Pink for $239 - 15%. Only 3 cell battery but I assume that will still have plenty of battery life to get my daughter thought a night of law school classes.

Snagged 2 for my kids at $219 each - 15% coupon ($403 delivered fo the pair including tax!!!) Thanks OP, these will make great presents for my twins 8th b-day! Took about 15 minutes of refreshing between the 2 but got them.

They had red ones when I looked earlier, but they cost more than the black (which is why I was happy to find a pink one for $239). Also I confused about the operating system. The title of the item clearly says it has Windows XP Home, and it comes with the free upgrade to Windows 7. But in the description it says "No Operating System". What's up with that?

Look further down, it comes with Windows XP. No upgrade to Windows 7 though

heyeaglefn said:Look further down, it comes with Windows XP. No upgrade to Windows 7 thoughBummer, I thought it came with the upgrade -- it showed the "Windows 7 Upgrade Program Details for Eligible System Purchases" coupon in my cart after adding the system. Turns out that the mini's do not qualify for the upgrade program. Bummer.

And I thought it came with XP. It was someone else who said it did not.

Nice, I snagged one of the $219 Black ones for less than $200 with coupon after tax. Now the question is do I try to put in another 1GB of RAM into this baby or not.
