    That is an excellent deal I must say, even with a Celeron. For less than $500, I would have expected 256MB RAM, but 1GB is wonderful.

    Looks like Dell is finally phasing out the good 'ol 600M.

    When I saw the deal I just about jumped out of my chair. But yea dell is definitly trying to get rid of the machine. But don't get me wrong it's a great machine, my sister has a 600m.
