Anyone know how long this might last?

Dell business magazine says "Call Before 3/19 For This Amazing Deal!"
From this I can only assume it ends on 3/19

It was a 1 day only deal (3/11/08). Had that upgraded video chip, but smaller 160GB hard drive.

Indeed, at that price I'm tempted...

There was a smoking deal for the system above with a 9-cell battery and 160GB HDD for $399. Notebook is a monster, but can't argue for that price!

I've seen the Vostro 1000 go down to that level, but never the 1500. That's an awesome price!

 

[ponyo]

I haven't been keeping up with notebook or Dell prices. Is the above config posted by OP good deal on this notebook?

 

[FFactory0x]

IT is an Awesome deal. I got in on this deal last month and couldnt be happier. The laptop is rock solid and flys

Expired link

I think it was up for only a few hours. I probably should have bought a few more, especially since next day shipping was included. Didn't cost me anything extra to have that monster sent to Alaska!

 

[Macgyversite]

The Deal is Still working for me.

Vostro's might be thick and clumsy looking but they are actually durable and great performers on all around.
