    I read where Dell's inventories are up these days. Does anyone know or anticipate lower prices on Dell's laptops in the next month or so? Should I wait to buy or should pull out the plastic now? With the Dothan chipset out will we see better deals on the machines with the older intel pentium mobile chips? Does anybody have the the inside track?
    Thanks

    Dell is all over the board, with great sales every day, depending on your needs. I think once you find a config that you like, with freebies that you actually want, it's safe to pull the trigger. Sure, prices will slide down on older PM chiped machines, but how long are you going to wait. It's really easy to play that game and still not have a notebook many weeks later.
