    I plan on purchasing 2 vostros. I am a small business. Do I get any discount for being a business?

    I'm just making a guess, but it might require a larger volume buy to get one. But the small business section is easy to find on Dell's page, easier than the one for student discounts.

    Besides don't most small business owners write these off almost completely when they file taxes?

    I think two systems would not qualify for a discount.

    The best bet is to call and tell them you are in the process of buying all new equipment, and based on your experience with these Vostros, you may buy from Dell. See what they can do for you. If they won't budge on the price, hang up, and try again.

    Also, if you are in the US, keep an eye out for coupon codes.
