I think anything purchased at Best Buy hardly qualifies as a best buy. Seriously though, this doesn't seem like a horrible purchase. What does the same configuration run through the Dell website?

 

Thanks mod.


On dell.com you can get the base configuration for $999.99, but this $899.99 deal from Best Buy has several upgrades over that.

1GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz (2 Dimms) -> 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz (2 Dimms)

120GB 5400rpm SATA Hard Drive -> 160GB 5400rpm SATA Hard Drive

Dell Wireless 1490 802.11a/g Mini Card -> Dell Wireless 1505 Wireless-N Mini-card

No Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Internal (2.0+Enhanced Data Rate) -> Yes

 

Weighs 4.4lbs??! this isnt correct rite?

 

Product Weight
5.8 lbs

what it says on the site. seems about right?

 

OVerall seems like a decent deal if you're looking for a sub $1,000 laptop.
