dell laptop deal $400
 

I've been hunting for a pc laptop and found this:

Dell Vostro 1000 Turion 64 X2 1.7GHz 15" Widescreen Notebook
AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-56 1.7GHz dual-core processor, 15.4" 1280x800 widescreen LCD, 1GB RAM, 120GB hard drive, dual layer DVD burner, 802.11g wireless, ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 256MB video card, and Windows Vista Home Basic

go here:
Dell

search for this:

does it have a s-video connector

common guys, i suck with computers, my brother in law wants to buy this one if it has an "s-video" port?!@#$ i hate computers...someone that knows please help me here, lol
where do you look to see if a computer has "s-video" capability?
educate me here guys, please

I don't see one listed- next model up has it.

No it does not have s-video according to the specs.



For an extra 70 bucks you can more than double your savings, upgrade ram to a more usable 1gb, better battery, and most of all a dual core processor.

Order it with windows XP because Vista sucks right now. Until they get their shit together I'm wouldn't have anything to do with Vista. edit - Ok the reason for this is that Vista is not compatible with allot of software that will run for XP.

This looks like a really good deal but I don't see a serial port connection listed in the specs.

thank you...i still hate computers though
ill just tell him to go with the next model up, is this still an awesome deal?

I'd buy it if I wasn't putting every last penny into the Miata.

sweet, thanks, i cant give anyone advice on computers and my brother in law thinks im the go to guy because i sit behind a computer all day at work, he doesnt realise that most that time im in snooze mode, and the rest on here and porn sites, lol
thanks for the help
(last question, do you work for Dell?) lol, j/k

Funny you should mention that, because right now I'm sitting behind a Dell *Looks at laptop* Latitude D600 at work.

No I don't work for Dell lol.
I deal with industrial gas turbine engines. :)
*engages snooze mode*

From the specs on the deal linked above:
AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Dual-Core processor
1GB DDR SDRAM

I've got a usb/serial adapter for logging/tuning.

ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZzzzZZZzzzZZZzzz, huh?

Woah, my bad. I just went and found the actual laptop on the site, not search for the value code that you posted.

i need a BF GPS deal...

so far i only see a MIO for $99 @ Office Max? or Office Depot, can't remember.

anyone?

I just picked up the Garmin i3 for $100 delivered at CarToys. They get a lot of refurb'd stuff that sells with a full OE warranty.

ok, this is where i get lost...so whats going on now? am i looking at the right one?
i went to the link and searched the code, and there were three options...400-460-500...which one is the one with the S-Video? :confused:

The Vostro 1400 has it. The above offer doesn't apply to it.

Is this board turning into a deals forum?? Slickdeals.net or Fatwallet.com had this posted also.

welcome to the BS forum
