    So I've been looking at the m1530 for a few weeks now. Finally I get the money to buy it, then they drop the $669 deal to $594 and top it off by charging $75 more to get the same processor as in the $669. Not only that, but since I'm a student I've been checking out the prices of different configurations with my 12% EPP discount and now all of a sudden they took down the entire customization page! I can't make a custom notebook for either the m1530 or m1330 anymore.

    What the heck is up with that, does Dell hate me? Anyone else having the same trouble with customization? I can do it on the normal page, but my EPP one only has a nice little flash demo.

    The EPP website seems to be undergoing a change. I don't even see a Buy option for those machines.

    Call the EPP phone number and try that route.

    It's not just the notebooks, seems to be for desktops as well. Its pretty late so they may be doing maintenence and updating.
