View Full Version : Fair price for a new, really low-end, Dell Laptop?

It's a Inspiron 1200:
14" XGA screen
Celeron M 1.3GHz - 1MB cache/400 FSB
256MB RAM - 333Mhz, 1 stick
30GB HDD
Integrated sound/video/ethernet/56k - no wifi
24x CDRW/DVD drive
XP Home
Nylon case
1 year warranty

The regular price of the I1200 with a Celeron M 1.4GHz and 40GB HDD is $749 on Dell.ca, so I figure ~$600 is fair for Celeron M 1.3GHz and 30GB HDD.

Too high/low?

The laptop isn't that great, but I want to get it for someone who just needs it for basic tasks.
