[Merged] Dell Ultrasharp 2408 24" LCD $499, Inspiron has sold out

[AndrewRFD]

UPDATE: Desktop is now officially sold out. The monitor is still available as of this update.

We've got some hot, limited quantity offers (500 redemptions each) from Dell this morning! The last limited quantity offer (the $399 Inspiron 1525) sold out in less than 24 hours, so if either of these items interest you, don't hesitate too long.

First off, there's a very cheap Inspiron 530 desktop PC for $299 in Pentium Dual-Core configuration or in Core 2 Duo Configuration (E4600) for $339. The specs are:

• Intel Pentium dual-core processor E2180 (1MB L2 Cache,2.00GHz,800 FSB) English
• Genuine Windows Vista® Home Basic Service Pack 1
• 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz- 2DIMMs
• 250GB Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache™
• Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio
• Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3100
• 16x DVD+/-RW Drive
• 1 Year Next Business Day Onsite/In Home Service and Tech Support

Note that in addition to a lower price than the Vostro 200 offerings in the past couple of weeks, the Inspiron 530 also comes with a 250GB hard drive as opposed to the 160GB seen in the Vostros. Upgrades worth mentioning include the E4600 for $40, the Q6600 for $140 (making for a Q6600 system for $439), and Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 for $89. As mentioned on the page, use coupon code 65PQH8RRFPRSFN at the checkout to bring the price down.

Second, all of you who were hungering for the Ultrasharp 2408 during the Days of Deals have had your wish granted - use the coupon code KMBSCN39RXNX04 to knock $200 off the $699 price tag for a price of $499! As always, shipping is free.

It's working fine from here. Are you doing anything other than going through the link, adding it to cart, and pasting in the coupon code?

Oh jeez. There's the issue. Sorry. Note to everyone else, you can't just add the monitor through searching Dell.ca.

Thanks

4 DIMM slots
PCIe x16 slot, but no PCIe power plug, so unless you plan to replace the PSU or jury-rig adaptors, you'll be limited to the 9500GT/8600GT/HD3650 or lower.

Yes, the 2408 from the deal link has its own configuration page. This is usually the case with limited quantity coupon offers like this.
