    its hard to tell. Dell just brought back the 750 coupon this past week, but I highly doubt that they are going to lower it to 1500 again.

    the $750 off $1500 is about the best deal you can ever get from a dell. It usually comes out about once a year, and doesn't last more then a couple of hrs.

    My guess is that we will not see another $750/$1500 in a long time. Dell has been trying to move to a more profitable model - witness the reorg that happened this past quarter on the business side. IIRC, when they had the $750 off of $1500 deal, their revenues were the highest ever that quarter, but their profits dropped.
