This is a good time to pick up and entry level laptop from Dell. There`s a free
upgrade to 256MB of DDR SDRAM, a free upgrade to a 30GB hard drive, a $100 rebate,
and free shipping on this laptop. They`ve recently increased the Celeron processor
speed to 2.3Ghz too. You get a 14.1" TFT, 8x DVD-Rom, 10/100 NIC, 56k modem, Windows
XP home, and 1 year warranty.

selected, however you MUST change the memory (for some reason, the free
doubled memory that voids the warranty only puts you to 256mb. 256mb is
the baseline offer anyway):

- $100 Mail In Rebate not combinable with Memory promotion
