Possible extreme deal in development over at Chubby Wallet.
Go to Dell home and search for item A0080840
Check it out
I'll edit this more completely once the deal becomes finalized.
Time for an update:
To recap what's going on:
Dell Home has a WD 200GB Hard Drive that is showing up with (2) individual $100 rebates.
If both are valid the final cost to you will be about $0-$35 depending on tax, and any coupons you might have.
The question of whether WD will honor both rebates is currently the hot topic.
There have been conflicting reports of people calling in and getting various responses.
People are also reporting Dell has a good history of making good on their offers, albeit slowly.
While people are reporting that orders placed this morning are going to ship much later(mid Oct.), even those that placed them last night are not showing as shipping before 9/30.
Therefore it seems if you order now you'll have at least the weekend to see how this plays out, before Dell ships your HD. So order now, cancel later!
And Good Luck!
PS Offer ends today!
New Info Coming Shortly!
While the deal is long dead the aftermath is still playing out. The best place right now to find information is in a thread on Dell's Forum
There "Cathy" a moderator has posted that what seems to be the final verdict on the situation will be posted tomorrow morning(Thursday).

The Verdict Is In!

The bottom line is that any drives that are shipped by them with out your asking them to do so WILL be honored for $200 in rebates!!!
Good Luck to All
