    Is it me? Or is it all screwed up? The rebates are no longer showing up in the totals, although it says they expire 7/5.

    I was perusing a CTO on a dv2800Tae, and the numbers kept jumping around.
    At one point, it went to $699!! Wish there was an add-to-cart there ;)

    For some reason, the $150 rebate is not being factored into the on-screen price right now...

    I still don't see the rebate being reflected.
    This is when you're actually building - the running totally on the upper right.
    It normally has:
    Starting amount, rebate subtracted, then total. In APP, it has starting price, then APP Price, then had rebate amount (-$150), and then the running total.

    All I get is the Starting price, then APP price, then the running total, which is same as APP price.

    Hmm... that is strange. Do you see the instant rebate if you log out off your APP account?

    Heh - funny thing, is, if I VPN into the office, and RDP to my server, and surf from there, just straight no APP, I see the rebate fine :)

    i think it's like half-logged onto the HP site or something, and I can;t remember what I changed the password to a few days ago, and the 'forgot password' procedure is like taking FOREVER to send the new one...

    Mucho thanks for the assist - lemme try what you say, as well as truly logging in again (not a cookie-login) and I;ll get back to ya :)

    Wierd....

    Had to erase all cookies, all caches, sign out of APP, etc...

    FINALLY got it back while logged into APP!

    Dang - that was REALLY strange!
