Getting ready to order a Dell 6000 is there a big advantage w/ the 1.86 compared to the 1.6 ghz? Also is the 64mb ATI good enough for photo editing, DVD watching, very little gaming. Or should I go for the 128MB? Also is this...

Yeah, i was wondering about that. What about the refurbed notebooks, they should be just as good as a new one right? maybe better since they should have had the problems fixed.

That was after the $750 coupon I got off the boards here. It's still good I just checked again. I wish you could combine the coupons with the 12% education discount the offer.

been trying to decide between Dell and Acer. They are really close on price, main diff. is you can get AMD w/ Acer and Acer is a little cheaper. I can get a dell 6000 for $1500 w/ Intel PM 730 1.6Ghz, Windows XP media, 15.4...
