    I thought they had some price guaranty when it comes to this stuff. Sleey0 would know but he's been MIA lately.

    It is nice to see the nice deals, but it is strange that they do not come with bluetooth. Is it a bug? cannot find in the SXPS or the alienware.

    Yes, I ordered it Monday and it's in boxing already. I guess they wanted to make sure I wasn't going to cancel again.

    Since when? People are getting it without bluetooth?

    Not to burst anyone's bubble but the new EPP stuff SUCKS! I am pretty pissed off right now as the Boeing program is no more :(

    It is now all the same - whether you're EPP is from a school, business, whatever.

    Oh and I don't see any good discounts now. The AW is 10% but I had 16% and 21% via Boeing and now it is gone.

    You guys forget that the EPP can be used for the rest of Dell's lineup, right? lol

    I am always buying stuff from Dell, whether it be a monitor, accessory, or laptop. So the whole dismantling of the Boeing program does indeed suck!

    Oh, and scook, I do not work for Boeing but am entilted to the discount nonetheless (family is eligibel so :p) hahah

    I know the coupon expired yesterday, but if anyone has an expired coupon code that they could give me, that would be great. My sales agent will try to give me the $100 off, but she needs the coupon code. Help! :D

    I don't understand how the EPP works. I just went onto the Alienware EPP website and can get the discount without typing in any code or such?
    Do they request it later? I can even add the discounted laptop to my cart.

    You went to dell.com/epp? When you add the system to your cart there is a spot to enter a coupon code.

    I got $80.00 credit when I called about the new Neb Red config that has the 1200P as stock screen, which I paid additional $150.00. $80.00 was most that they gave me to keep as a customer. It was fine with me. L :)

    Does anyone have an EPP discount coupon?

    The current dell EPP system sucks as I dont see any difference between HOME & Employee Purchase Program. Earlier at least there was 7% addition student discount which would at least help rebating the TAX they charged.

    I'm a student at GWU, could I still get 7% off if I try speaking to the REP ? (sort of Negotiating)

    What do you think guys ?
