[djray]

I'm looking to buy a laptop this boxing day... preferably one with a DVD-RW...

I am in the same boat, so any advice would be helpfull.
Also, does anyone know if dell does anything for boxing day???

Not sure if Dell will have any boxing day deal, but Best Buy has a good price on a Compaq Laptop with DVD-RW for Boxing Day. It's on thier cover page.

I am in the same boat. I am wondering if IBM's epp site will have a sale on Boxing day?

Same here

Man don't almost all laptops have a DVD+RW drive now-a-days? O.o.

IBM EPP had a deal on a t42 with radeon 9600 1.8Ghz 512mb 60gb for 1899. Went in one day it was so hot, shouldn't have hesitated arggg

It was like 3 days ago, for IBM's EPP holiday special.

In my opinion the BestBuy "Compaq Presario V2030US Pentium M 710 1.4GHz Laptop" is surely an old crap sitting around, although its still listed at $1799 on BB & FS web site <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=78 target=_blank>http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/prodde...wdeptid=20001# </a>. Pentium M 1.4 GHz came out almost more then 1 1/2 year ago. The latest laptops are 1.8 to 2 Ghz or over centrinos. One can usually find Pentium M 1.4 GHz laptops on <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=78 target=_blank>ebay</a> for $900

i'm more upset about the T42p 2.0gz/1gb/128mb ATI FireGL/ dvdrw/bluetooth/high capa battery/15'' flexview uxga that was 2799 a month ago

The Pentium-M 710 was only released in a few weeks ago, which along with the 14" widescreen LCD clearly indicates that the laptop is brand new model. Though I would doubt that it would go for virtually half price (unless it's only like 1 per store).

Same here...you and I both had our eyes on it...just didn't have the case at that moment.

I agree, the CPU is probarbly the newer one with higher FSB, but, yet, its the slowest of centrino chips...
whats bad in buying a Dell 600m CENTRINO 1.4 laptop of <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=78 target=_blank>eBay</a> http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...tem=6729312462
Its got sold for $900 Cdn...FS & BB always every other week have $400 off, off their over inflated prices. So, the boxing day deal is nothing exclusive.
