Need a super deal on the Dell 5150. Cheapest model you can find but I'll consider upgrades to CPU, display or memory. Anything else is totally unnecessary.
Something with the Core2Duo or at least 9xx series that's a wicked deal would be much appreciated.
I've dug pretty deep and haven't found anything really awesome enough to make me jump and buy immediately. Maybe someone knows a great e-value code or stackable coupon?

This week's $799 deal isn't bad, but I don't like the downgrade to 17" LCD. :(

bump... haven't found anything really good.
Wish I'd grabbed that $800 Conroe workstation before they bumped up the price $250. :(

Ugh...so far, no. The 9200 has replaced the 9150 and come down in price but it's still overpriced. :mad:

Last year we had much better prices for computer deals :mad:

I'm hoping for something good on the 9200 and its Conroe processor... maybe the 5150 for the price of Chernobyl-grade dirt.

Off DFSDirect. $846.36 no shipping (at least when I ordered something yesterday). Considering the monitor is worth $250 on sale, not bad. No where near high end, but could be nice.

Sadly, I can't go that route. Must be from Dell.ca for two reasons:
1) I have a $400 coupon to use.
2) I need financing for the remainder.

$400 coupon not bad, how about did you get that?

Telus. Promotion is still going on. AB & BC only, IIRC.

YES!!! The 5150 just dropped in price, and with the free upgrade to 19" LCD is only $700! Upgrade it to 2GB as I require and it's only $900! minus my $400 coupon and it's the $500 minimum for financing, so financing is super cheap, too! Faaantastic! Just the deal I was hoping for!
