    Does this seem like a good deal?

    I am using a 25% off Coupon and have this:

    The price it comes to before tax is $1,321.50 CDN

    Does this seem like a good deal. This is a Dell.ca order by the way.

    Does it seem like a good build and laptop?

    Doesn't seam like a "hot" deal to me. I'm not familiar with the value of the warranty. But I got my system in my signature for $1019 + tax from the Dell Outlet, and I've seen several machines comparable to mine purchased brand new.

    Well did you get it from Dell.ca or Dell.com? The difference in price is big.

    Order the XPS m1530 and you get a 8600gt, HDMI, BioReader, and a nice XPS casing.

    For 1369.00 + tax, you would have to be sniffing glue to use that coupon after my post. Anyway you config this thing its going to be better and cheaper.

    But you lose the screen, I love my 1440x900 but I also bought a 20"LG 2ms 3000:1 at Futuresn@ch for $239.00+tx. I game/movie on that.

    I can't find your post about coupons but it is cheaper with the coupon and its cheaper than it has been in a month or so since I have been monitoring the Vostro 1400 and the Inspiron 1420.
