Who is gettin what with the $750 off $1499 tomorrow?? I am gonna get a 700m, still working on the config tho. What are some of your guys configs to get to the $1500??

I am kind of trying to decide between just one 8cell battery or a 4 cell and an additional 8 cell. Maybe 2 year warranty?

I would go with a 4 cell & 8 Cell, but drop down to a 1 year warranty to keep the price down to as close to $1500.

maybe instead of a system upgrade, just buy a cheap accessory.

Be aware that only certain pre-configured system qualify for $750 off. You can still customize but not all the options are available. DO NO USE general customize page to configure your system. Here is the link for the promotional models.

Edit: Actually Dell's 64mb USB drive seems not to be free at all. The base price of the same 700m is up about $30 compare to last time the same $750 deal in May 23.

I got the basic machine + 8 cell + 2 yr CC. I added as stick of 512mb after and put in a 7K60 drive. Really nice for $780 after tax.

Are they offering free shipping tomorrow too?

you mean it was 780 before the ram and drive you put in after right??

I sure hope there is free shipping, cuz that might ruin the deal

Site says they have free shipping for over $899....I hope that is before the coupon

"Instant savings offer is combinable with free shipping" whatever that means

I would get at least a 3 year warranty if I were you. Laptop repairs can be expensive. Also, you might turn into one of those trolls that complain that your laptop broke just a week after the warranty expired and Dell won't fix it.

the 700m is pretty much useless
one you add the 8cell and 60 gig....your gonna come out around $1000

if you wait until july, i heard they are releasing this coupon again... but i dont care to wait 2 months just to save $100

happy with the purchase.... so far

Yeah i ordered,

1.6ghz
256 ram (wil upgrade myself)
4cell and 8cell
DVD burner
2 year warranty
40 gig

came out to $833 after all coupons and taxes (free shipping).
Not too bad, I just wich I could drop the DVD burner and get the 60 gig instead, that would be the exact config I wanted. That would also drop $60 from my credit card.
