    That could easily mean midnight tonight so if anyone's still prevaricating, do it now or forever hold your peace.
  • Received mine by UPS this morning, havent had good chance to check everything but first impressions are it seems excellent value for money and a very quick delivery by Dell.
    If your after a cheap laptop and i think today might be the last day then you wont go far wrong with this one.

    Its hard but I'm going to hold out this time. After upgrading the memory, screen and battery it'd end up costing around £400. Maybe if I could really justify a laptop other than for sitting out in the garden in summer I'd go for it. But I'm just hoping a cheaper one comes around sometime!

    It seems like everyone else on the Internet has bought one, though.

    Screen and battery take it to £345. Depending memory you want, 256MB could be as little as £25 (Crucial or PC World), meaning total of £370. Feels better when it sounds a lot less then £400.
