    Its €150 with the voucher.. I prefer the dell tho, bigger screen n keyboard.. But at the mo the only ones popping up are €270+

    Not worth that much over the LG

    The Mini10v brand new is €299 incl VAT and shipping. The ones popping upon the outlet are €277 - save €22. Not great really. Pity, would have been good to get one sub-€250.

    The DD one I mentioned earlier is back up! Is this some tactic being used by Dell or what?

    The 1010 is the one to go for, one came up there for €174 ex vat. Just missed it..

    I'm now lost on the LG, some reviews say its a 10" screen n others a 8.9".. Time to do some research..

    Actually, the Outlet doesn't include either VAT or shipping, so the Outlet price is running about the same as brand new price for a Mini10v (1011).

    Also, check the spec! Some of the Mini10/10vs on the Outlet are the older 1.33GHz processors rather than the 1.6GHz ones! Check the spec of what you're buying.

    I just lost one that has 1.6GHz, 6-cell battery and the latest WIFI /n - for the same price as a brand new one without those. Really, is the Outlet good value for the laptops?

    The last 2/3 weeks they've added a lot of systems to the irish outlet. Before that it was a bit of a backwater.

    I do like Windows 7 but I kinda fancy an Os X machine. How'd you get it for €188 when mine was €212? Does not compute.
