Dear News Corp Employee,
If you've been thinking about purchasing a home computer for yourself or your family, now is the time! As a News Corp employee, you can take advantage of this limited time offer.
Starting May 25, 2006 to June 7, 2006, you can save 35 percent on Dell Dimension and Insprion systems that are priced $999 or more* using the coupon code below.
Coupon Code at checkout: BKXFFPDDZRM5VG (This code was NOT given by Dell for News Corp employees. I got this code from a friend at US Bank for THEIR EPP program. I tested it and it works for News Corp as well. Coupon expires June 7, 2006 or 1,000 redemptions, whichever occurs first.)
Plus, get your Employee Purchase Discount of up to 12 percent off using member ID
For full details of this offer and to take advantage of this discount you can place your order all online via Dell'ss Secure Employee Purchase Store at http://Dell.com/atg/newscorpepp.
*Price applies to systems before tax, employee discount, shipping and handling.
Deal is best when your 35% discount is over $750 (since there currently is a $750 off $1,999 available for EPP.)

Even better deal for those with no tax. This configuration came out over $100 cheaper than with the EPP $750 + 12% coupons or AAFES. It beats Dell Home's price for same specs by more than this.
No flaming. For those who need the laptop NOW (ie. me), this is the BEST price you can have at this moment.
