The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Even better, they'll start paying us to buy them. :p

    I've seen many o' deals on Fatwallet.com where you get -$5 after mail-in-rebates to buy stuff.
    "Sure why not, I'll get paid $5 to buy something from your lovely establishment" :p

    Sorry Kdawgca,
    I didn't know where best to place it, and I must have missed " Notebook & Tech Bargains" when I was looking thru the list of forums.
    Thanks for fixing this for me.

    Well, some people at slickdeals.net reported that it's over. I ordered 2 2GB RAM, but delayed on another item I wanted. O well, hopefully the RAM order will go through.

    I ordered 4GB's of this stuff a couple days ago. But yes, the deal is over. Dell canceled the $25 off coupons earlier than their printed expiration date because too many people were using them...

    Haha... I'll confess I placed 12 orders using these $25 off coupons. 6 orders have shipped. I got a few v220 mice for $5.50 shipped, a few 4GB USB flash drives for $7.50 shipped and two Jabra bluetooth headsets for $8.50 shipped each. Some good deals. It's a shame Dell couldn't honor the printed expiration date of March 2 on these coupons...

    $80 six months ago is not bad. Without special deal you can get $80 from newegg shipped right now! So it must've been a good deal.
