    Good deal. the only downside is that you cann't upgrade your LCD to higher resolution... there is only one option 800X1200

    Good deal, but the deal was the same last week but also included a $200 Dell Gift card. So the deal was almost $200 cheaper last week...

    Thread closed.

    If you are not a employee of Credit Farm or a "costumers-member", then using EPP can be construed as fraud. Because of that, this thread is closed.

    In the future, please do not post EPP access.

    Thx
