    In anyones experience, does dell usually offer good discounts after xmas? I am tempted to pull the trigger on an m170. This is canada by the way so no 40% coupons, but a reasonably good deal right now. But I am wondering if there may be massive disounts after xmas anyway. Wad u think folks?

    I would say to go ahead and get the m170 now. Its hard to tell with Dell if they'll have a future discount or not. You can always order the m170 now and get the discount, and if something comes along better in the next couple of weeks, you can cancel and reorder.

    Yes it is possible to cancel your order anytime before it is shipped. You just need to call Dell. You also do have 21 day return policy where you can return your laptop with in 21 days of shipped. I would suggest trying to depend on the 21 day return because their is a possible restocking fee, and shipment fee, not to mention you don't get your money back very quickly (supposedly).
