is it just me or does this seem like a killer price? They are selling refurbs with lesser hardware for the same price at dell outlet

cheap, cheap, cheap, in particular considering 3 year ud based warranty - only downside is that they are likely getting phased out

Yes this is a very good price. Only bad thing about the dell latitude is they have a 2GB limit but other than that its a killer deal. I would probably add a dvd burner to the combo.

my guess is the 530 is right around the corner - and the 531 will be a better deal...

Well, I bought one.

I had never used a Latitude until about 4 weeks ago on a contract job. Extremely impressed by the build -- it was the first Dell laptop I could pickup by the corner without it flexing.

Default LCD was only 1024x768, so I upgraded that -- otherwise it's a solid business machine.

Plus, it's a 1 year warranty.
