I've always used DELL Laptops (build my own desktops, sorry DELL).
I have a system I follow when upgrading all my systems, when Microsoft releases a new OS I know it's time for me to build or buy new systems capable of handleing the new OS.
I did the usual research in trying to find out what hardware I was going to need to handle the new Microsoft Windows Vista OS then did what I thought to be all the ground work in selecting my new laptop and settled on the DELL E1505 because it offered the features I found I'd need to be able to handle Vista once it gets released.
Searching after the order for more info in preporation I ran across this web site and began reading as much of the info as I could here, still happy with my selection after reading what everyone had to say I happened to find your DELL Coupons link.
WOW! How I almost screwed up by not just coming to this website first and not knowing about all the features you have available here! You had a coupon listed for the same system I just bought offering $750 off. OK, we're all a little skeptical on the internet, a coupon for $750 off seemed like a catch had to be involved in there somewhere.
I decided to call DELL though and check into this and come to find out, no one was there to answer the phone on the weekend. So I went to the URL the phone system suggested and tried the on line chat with a rep. First effort failed by entering in my new order number, something about I didn't exist. Fortuneatly I've bought other products from DELL and had a customer ID number which I used. The rep said I couldn't apply the coupon to my current order because it was already processed in the system, but she could cancel and even recommended I cancel and reorder using the coupon I found on this web site. I was hesatent to cancel my already placed order (still skeptical about a $750 off offer I found on a website) but decided for some reason to go against my instinct and follow through with the DELL reps advice and cancel my order to retry it with the coupon.
OK, well the coupon says on orders for this laptop of $1999.99 or more you'll get $750 off. I tried to re-enter the same options I could afford and bought the first time, then the coupon code, and got an error. I was under the $1999. limit with the options I ordered.
So I decided I'd play around with the upgrade options and at worse just save it to my wish list to see what I ended up with and if this too good to be true coupon actually worked.
Which brings me back to here, this web site rocks!
I ordered the same laptop, but with all the add on upgrade features I wanted (and then some to get the total over $1999) the first time but was too cheap to check off, then applied the $750 off coupon I found here, and got an even better option packed laptop for $60 less after all the numbers came in!
My cancelation of that order didn't stop there though, once I seen I was still saving $60 I decided to look for an additional $60 worth of features to continue adding on to the allotment of funds I was dedicating to this and did so.
End of story?
Not yet.
Further reading here I happened upon someones post mentioning different laptops were available under the Dell Business systems. Stupid me, or stupid Dell (I think the later), I had know idea when I checked "Compare ALL laptops" on their website I wasn't going to see ALL the laptops they had available. There was an entirely new catagory listed under business systems!
When they say "Compare ALL Laptops" they should mean ALL.
Once again, had I not of found this web site, I would have ended up with just a laptop, but not the one that had all the features I was after. I resubmitted my new order after fully researching everything at this web site and now I'm getting 100% the laptop with all the features I originaly wanted and the bottom line for Dell is my final cost is well over $1000 more than what my first order cost was going to be. So Dell gets an additional $1000 out of my pocket, I get the laptop I really wanted, and this web site gets my 2 thumbs up.
That's a win win situation for everyone in my book and I have all of it to thank to this web site!
I'll never buy another mobile device again without coming here first, this web site rocks, thanks for having it available to all of us!

I'm glad you like it here, I love it here as well, and if not for the people here as well as the resources I'd never have found the perfect notebook for me.
I also wouldn't have learned all I know now about the Mobile computer world. -

This website is among the first ones to hit my firefox tabs when I start to surf the net. Even if I have no problems with my notebook, I still visit regulary, even once in a while at this forum to read more and help other people who have problems with their notebooks. Before I am not particularly interested in notebooks, but since I got one, All I can say is this website is a must bookmark for Laptop owners, and Notebook enthusiasts. Thanks NBR!
