Cheapest place/coupons/deals to buy a dell M6400? or an alternative?

Hi all,
I'm thinking of purchasing the M6400 laptop. I cannot stand my current laptop anymore, the Inspiron 9300 . It doesn't suit the tasks I'm involved with... it was handed down to me by my brother who is a programmer while I'm in the graphics/media field.

So I was wondering if any of you know where I can buy the m6400 for the cheapest price? or perhaps any coupons or deals that you may know of.

I'm a student and can't afford the m6400 at the current price on dell's website or without any coupons or deals...

Also I was wondering what is an alternative laptop to the Dell M6400. I'd love one with a smaller screen size but with a similar performance, although there can be some compromise. I will be using the laptop mainly for architectural renderings, 3d modelling, animation, graphics, multi-tasking between softwares etc... I'd like one with 8GB Ram (no need for ability to upgrade to 16GB etc like the m6400)

I'm hoping the alternative will be much cheaper than the m6400 due to the smaller size, and lower specs etc.

I talked to the dell help guy and he recommended the XPS studio 13 model... i don't trust him as he didn't seem too knowledgeable.... so here I'm asking the real experts for help

thanks

Try the Dell Outlet,

I saved about $1400.00 buying mine from the outlet.
