    Yep, its for all inspirons excluding the XPS line i believe. I wish i was in the market for a computer right now, i also would have picked up a 9300 for that price.

    At a laptop price of $1667 or higher, the current 30% off coupon is a better deal. Between $1499 and $1667, the $500 off coupon that starts tomorrow will be a better deal.

    Yep. The 700m I'm considering is in that in-between range, so I'll wait for the $500 off.

    Ok. I tried it:

    We're sorry, the coupon code you have entered has already expired or has reached the maximum redemption limit.

    What the h...?

    Must have been used up, I can't get it to work on any notebooks. I wanted the Inspirion 630M fully loaded and after applying the coupon for $500 off my price is still $1600. Even tryed a 6000 and it dosen't work. Bummer.

    If you want a coupon for Small Business laptops (which is what the 630m falls into) you'd have to wait for a coupon for the SB store, these coupons are all for the Dell Home store.

    Here's a link to current offers for Small Business:

    http://www1.us.dell.com/content/topics/promo.aspx/promocompare?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&~tab=2

    The 630m has no offers because it's new. It's the same as the XPS M140 via the Home store btw.

    Thanks abaxter. I guess the M140 is not included in this deal. Too bad as I need a laptop for work as mine was stolen. I purchased and HP and I'm approching the 30 day return and I was hoping to get either the M140 or 630M nicely loaded for ablut $1100 shipped and taxed.
