Doesn't matter, cause when you get the coupons you want and place an order, they delay your shipment two weeks, blame you for cancelling when you didn't, then tell you they can't reinstate the order because they don't carry the product anymore.

Fvck Dell.

Dell treats its customers like crap...that is what is up. Moving tech support to India, poor customer service...these are things that lead to a companies demise.

Yeah, I'd like to have the link to sign up for these coupons. I sign up at small business and all I ever get is ads mentioning the 10% off sale they having.

I've had good experiences with tech support in india.
Everything was handled through email. They even honored a warranty that expired for 2months.

I've have a 8100 and have been extremely happy with it. It seems if you buy a PC they'll do anything for you. Try to order a digital camera and they find a way to cancel your order.

there was a unique link for dell SB that specifically states that once you sign up they'll emaili you a 10% SB coupon within a week or 2. The dell link you follow from their homepage does not state that.

I need that link! :)

depends on the price, I got a 8500 2.2ghz, best screen (1920x1200, don't remember the letters), dvd/cdrw for $1100 AR.

Very happy with it considering the price I paid.

Yeah I had an 8100 too. Nice lappy for sure. I ebayed it after having for about a year. I sold it for like $200 less than what I paid. LOL Gotta love ebay. Hope this 8500 is as nice.
