Hi! New member here.

Does anyone have any new Dell e-value codes for Laptops?


I'm toying between a Sony and an Acer in the £850 range,
but it'd be great to have a deal on a Dell instead...

I would go for a Sony for better quality, but a bit dearer.

Have a look at the Poll that should reassure you.

My total budget is about £1000 including the extended warranty
(knowing me it's just a good idea..) so along with a case etc that's
£830-£870 for the Laptop itself.


The Sony I'm looking at is this , which I can get at Comet's website for £780 it seems.
Otherwise an Acer seems like a sensible option - longer battery, for one thing.
The Viaos have a better feel etc, but I'm not sure they're reliable.


Otherwise I've been perusing the Dell Outlet store...

Don't worry, I wont get addicted like you...
I actually use over a dozen forums ATM,
mostly for music but other things too.
