No. Staples has some good desktop clearance sales. A couple of threads here too.

good luck

Wrong section, this is not a hot deal.
You can get better deals all the time from dell or even bestbuy, this forum is full of them.

I would say there are currently much better offers elsewhere.

Dell currently has a pair of desktop systems that run circles around the Acer unit in question. There is an Inspiron E4600 Core 2 Duo system for $509 (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=542968) and a Vostro 400 E6550 Core 2 Duo system for $599 (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=542976).

I personally haven't seen better current desktop offers, but someone else might have spotted something I didn't.

IMHO, tiger direct rarely has any good deals. And their shipping costs always make it a cold deal.
