    The US site doesn't even work yet.

    They have buttons to shop for them but when you click it goes to a page not found. Nice to know that Dell's quality control extends to their web site as well.

    The funniest bit about the image is the line that says 'You save twenty quid!' :)

    Also, bear in mind that for us British consumers that new Vostros advertised price is excluding 17.5% VAT and delivery costs!

    Eep.

    Lol....do you think that DELL's actually going to charge you 100 grand for that lappy? Want to try to buy it and see how much DELL ACTUALLY charges you? That's definitely something to brag about..."My lappy is as expensive as my house!"...hehe...definitely draws people's attention...

    I'd buy the laptop and see if they actually charge your card that amount! You could then try and hold them responsible for your overdraft/exceeding credit limit fees and maybe get some Dell credit out of the deal ;)...

    Of course I'm not sure a computer deal is worth ruining your credit.
