    You can get this deal at Office Depot, it's in-store only.

    The circular shows the Sony Vaio VGN-C140G/B selling for $899 after you get a $200 rebate, plus $150 instant-off (in-store only) at Office Depot.

    This VGN comes with:

    Intel core 2 Duo processor T5500 ( 1.6Ghz)
    13.3'' Wide Screen 1200 X 800 display
    1 GB RAM
    120GB hard Drive
    Dual layer DVDRW

    Not bad for $899 -- just be sure to get the "instant off" and the rebate when you go to Office Depot.

    There is no need for a bump 3 minutes after the origional post. This does look like quite a good deal though.

    That's about $200 less than anywhere else, great deal, thanks for posting -- but skip on the bumps next time ;)

    Is that a business model? It sure does look a tad bit bulky!

    Not trying to defend him or anything, but he was probably bumping it because he knew it was going to expire soon and wanted to give everyone a chance! hahaha good guy good guy.
