maximus0983

Hi,

Ive been waiting and waiting and I have finally gotten rid of all my junk and raised around £500 to spend on a Dell Mini 10.

Does anyone have any codes or deals that they are aware of for this? Ive priced up one online at £440

Theres codes for the Vostro range but the Mini 10 appeals to me more for size and portability.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I can't advise you on any codes but you could phone Dell sales and tell them that you are interested in this laptop and one from another company that is cheaper (do your research and work out a price) and ask them do they have any deals on at the moment or could match the price or even ask them why you shouldn't go for XYZ.

A little gift of the gab goes a long way, or in lay mans terms bullsh1tting ;o))

Best of luck and post back with how you got on and remember its a recessions and sales staff work on commision

I'd certainly not recommend the Dell Mini (and I normally like Dell systems), depending on your budget, the Samsung NC10/20 are infinitely better machines (in fact the best netbooks you can buy). The Mini isn't well received in reviews either.

I'd agree.

The NC10 is a much better machine.

My son was looking at the Dell Mini 10 and was put off by the long delay for these, as detailed by Dell themselves on the site. So, your question might be a little academic unless you're prepared to wait or buy from PC World or Ebay.
