Default LF: Compaq Presario R3230CA
Trying to find the best deal for the Compaq Presario R3230CA in retail stores or online (in canada only). Best price I can find is at Futureshop for $1399, it's overpriced considering pcoutlet.com had it for $1199 a while back.

if your area has a office depot, i would try to go there and pick up a r3310ca . i didn't notice much different in the spec between R3310CA and R3230CA.

anyway, office depot is clearing them out. price online will show $1500. but if you choose "pick up at store" or just call your local office depot, they'll tell you it's only $900.

it's a clearence item, so g'luck finding stock.

Yeah, already tried my luck with that deal two months ago, they should really pull that off their website. I'll probably settle for a R3220CA at compusmart for $1099, would rather buy from staples, but they're out of stock.

pcoutlet.com sells mostly refurbished or return product, that's why they are cheaper...you really have to test your luck.

R3240 is a lil over my budget and I don't think the price is going to drop any time soon. I'll just settle for a older model and save a few hundred dollars.

Yeah but the R3230CA was brand new, kicking myself for not taking advantage of that deal.

Thx for the offer Cisco, but I'm in the market for a brand new laptop. Just out of curiosity, why are you selling it?

I've got the r3440ca - got it on sale for $1400. I love it, but I sorta think I shoulda waited and got a r4025, but it isn't too big of a deal.

No problem no reason for sale, more so I always buy play and sell, LOL bad habit but I got mine for $1230 plus tax, I chose the R3230 cause I did not want the true brite screen at all.

I plan to buy a dvdrw drive for it and sell the combo drive off on egay. I could sell it or keep it either way.

This laptop is like the 3440 except 40GB drive vs 80GB and no dvd burner like the 3440 and no true brite. I used the 3440 and returned it due to true brite. Processor is same as well as 64 DDR Geforce vcard
