    actually they DO work with the XPS..
    not sure if it's a mistake yet, but I got it to work..
    add the 12% off, it's 42% off a fully loaded system..

    best of luck to all!

    I'm thinking about buying an E1405 since the motherboard died on my 600M. It seems the biggest qualm people have with this laptop is the LCD. Does anyone know if it would be possible to switch out the LCD from the 600M that I have? Also, would it be possible to switch out my HD? Thanks.

    The question I have is how do I become a member of EPP? How do I get those promotions(like the 30% off)? I am a student at University of Maryland, so I think I could get access. But how do I?

    Oh and if anyone's got any coupons, PM me. I need to buy a laptop bad.

    Look at the slickdeals thread mentioned in the previous page.
    The 30% coupon is a one time use coupon, available through ebay or begging in forums - it seems you have used a multiple use affiliate inspiron coupon.

    The 30% coupons are for ALL systems, and ON TOP of the 12% EPP discount, hence the excitement on the forums right now :D
    They are NOT affiliate coupons.
    Do look through the slickdeals thread - u will get more info there than here.

    I was able to close the deal. Found the link to the slickdeals forum from a link in this forum, scoured and tried four to five codes and BANG one worked. 30% plus 12% EPP. HARD. $1248.00 for a nicely configured XPS M1210. That's about all i was willing to pay. It just goes to show you the mark up.
