I know it's not as good as buy.com dotd on the sony laptop, but it's still pretty damn good.

This quite was generated from the Home/Small office -> Notebooks -> Dell Inspiron 4000 setup

This is indeed a HOT deal, the free shipping ends Wednesday 10/11 at 11 PM CT and the $150 off ends on 10/25 I think? Also Dell is currently offering two free color inserts ($38 savings). Plus if you e-mail me and place a Dell order I can hook you up with a $25 GC to Dell.com

Here's the configuration I think I might go with, any thoughts on the Internal 56K Capable V.90 + 10/100 Mini-PCI Combo?
