    you can post helpful technical knowledge, but sales are not to be part of the main forums. If you have a good deal use the tech deals forum

    I got one of those coupons in my email a month or so back. Honestly, even with that $50 coupon, I still got a better deal purchasing on the dell home website. EPP is not as competitive with pricing as it use to be.

    I would love to buy a dell product but Dell took the XPS 13 off the market for a redesign. Before I buy an Acer 3820TG or HP Envy 14, I would love to hear from a Dell Rep about the redesigned XPS 13. Can you give us any hint of when we can expect to see the new one. How about specs?

    My business has used Dell for the past 10 years and i would love to stay with them. What i need now is information, which the company has been a bit short on.

    Bronsky :cool:

    Same, would love to know information about the XPS 13. Or, if no information is available, the Inspiron M301Z or 13R. Shame you cannot get a decent 13" these days without paying $2,000 for a Sony Z.

    How about the E4300 or E4310? It's a pretty nice laptop.

    Thanks for the suggestion, didn't know about that one. Not a fan of the business class pointers, and the pricing seems a bit off. ~$1500 for i5/integrated?

    Pointers? You mean the trackpoint? The laptops also have a touchpad...
