Got a link? 21steve 07-04-2005, 12:58 http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/inspn_1150?c=uk&cs=ukdhs1&l=en&s=dhs Skatiechik 07-04-2005, 13:05 Links not working, neither is www.dell.co.uk :( nick2 07-04-2005, 13:08 Originally posted by Skatiechik Links not working, neither is www.dell.co.uk :( At least they are consistant with their PC's then :) Skatiechik 07-04-2005, 13:11 I thought Dell laptops were supposed to be mid-range? :confused: Cyclone 07-04-2005, 13:21 cheaper one (http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/products/features.aspx/homepage_q1_w10_inspn_1000_N04105?) more expensive one (http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/inspn_1150?c=uk&cs=ukdhs1&l=en&s=dhs) the site does seem to be down. There are no reliability issues with dells. The biggest issues they have are sometimes flaky customer support and occassionally getting the spec wrong. However i gained a 60GB harddrive out of their mistake (a 2nd one in addition to the first that is). Skatiechik 07-04-2005, 13:23 OK was getting worried then as I had always thought Dell Laptops were good. 21steve 07-04-2005, 13:24 site is under a lot of pressure! got mine sorted! ;-) keep an eye on www.hotukdeals.co.uk always great stuff there Skatiechik 07-04-2005, 13:36 Must have missed it, as it says £350 but when you click on customise and buy price goes up :( Or am I doing something wrong? 21steve 07-04-2005, 13:38 its u. it then says discount price wont be shown till the basket. then u customise and it goes back to 350 adlinds 07-04-2005, 13:43 If you click "customise and buy" and then click the "1 year European collect and return" option instead of the standard package which is highlighted in green then it knocks £105.74 or £94 off the price depending on which laptop it is. nick2 07-04-2005, 13:50 Originally posted by Cyclone There are no reliability issues with dells. LOL Jamie 07-04-2005, 14:32 Sounds like a bargain, wot's the catch !!!!? :confused: adlinds 07-04-2005, 14:35 I don't think there is one. If you look on HotUkDeals there are always deals like this. I got my mum and dad a new Dell PC for just over £250 before christmas, it was only a Intel Celeron D 300 but it came with a 17" monitor and even a free MP3 player worth £57, not bad. Skatiechik 07-04-2005, 14:53 Hope the deal is still on this evening, sent the link to my other half and he said we could discuss it. :clap: Better than an outright NO, which is what I was expecting :) wendy 07-04-2005, 15:00 Originally posted by nick2 At least they are consistant with their PC's then :) Well I've had two machines from them in the past - one with a 3 year next business day warranty never had to call on them once! I've since used some of the part on one to upgrade a machine with - it was still working fine but was too slow and the other is still going strong and I am talking over 4 years now for the one still used. My daughter has just bought one of these cheap laptops and I set it up for her. It's the base model so doesn't have extra connectors etc but seems fine to me especially for the money - she paid £419 for hers though. mr.blaze 07-04-2005, 16:23 They are both Cellerons :gag: Customize for an extra 100 odd quid :rolleyes: Cyclone 07-04-2005, 17:15 Originally posted by J-Blaze They are both Cellerons :gag: Customize for an extra 100 odd quid :rolleyes: what were you expecting for £350??? :loopy: InvalidUser 07-04-2005, 23:34 A friend bought one of those cheap Dell laptops a few months ago and I used it for a while as I connected it up to broadband for her. They're really very good considering the price. |
