Best Dell Sale Deal

Has anyone come across an outstanding dell deal ? It seems looking at their site today their best deals were a few months ago when people managed to get a 5150 with 19" tft for under £600. I thought they would have better deals in their January Sale.

Hence, if i am mistaken then please use this board to post the best desktop or laptop deals under £600 you may come across to help all the money savy pc buyers out there.

Thank in Advance and Have a GREAT NEW YEAR !

    From what I can gather Dell have monthly sales targets, and this being a VERY good month for them (Dec) they are not slashing prices.

    However, you may find that come 2nd or 3rd week in Jan that things for Dell will be quite slow (then again you never know maybe a lot of ppl held off to buy in the 'sales') If things are slow you will find the last 2 weeks in the month IS the time to buy. I have found this website http://www.wizmarkcomputers.co.uk/ good for listing the latest bargains, but if your going to buy, use the info from it, go to Quidco and signup and get 5.5-6.5% cashback on your purchase.

    You should only buy Dell if you want rubbish customer service and non-existent technical support, and if you like paying 8p per minute to speak to them on their 0870 numbers which they claim are 'toll-free'.

    Be warned!
    That, is an excellent question...
