Being Fathers Day I've decided to buy my dad a desktop since his broke. I also am looking into getting a AW laptop for myself. My question is this:

1) Can AW reps sell AW AND regular Dell stuff? Sorry this is probably a well answered question but I haven't seen the solution.

2) The more complicated problem: He is in Canada and I am in the US. Is there any chance they'd be willing to ship his to Canada and mine to the US in the same order? Or is it more likely I'd have to do two independent orders?

The only reason I ask this is I figure I could get a better deal ordering two computers as opposed to one. Any opinions are greatly appreciated!

Dell.ca will only ship to Canada, Dell.US will only ship to the US. You can always order from an Authorized Reseller save some cash and get it shipped wherever you wish

i think they can sell both aw and dell, and for shipping you can always ship it to your address first then ship it to him. thats what i do i order it to my brothers house in the U.S then he sends it to me. im on a miltary base in okinawa.
