I'm in the market for a laptop at the moment, and first place I looked is dell outlet.

My budget is around €800 so for that price I can get something in the region of a 2GHz Core 2 Duo with 4 gigs memory and Geforce 8600 Mobile, either a 17" Inspiron or 15" XPS (I'm undecided on size right now, but I hear the Inspiron is of higher build quality)

So I went looking up other places and other manufacturers and similarly specced laptops are around twice that price everywhere I look.

Obviously this is comparing refurbished dells with brand new machines, so I was wondering if there's any other places that do a similar service to dell outlet and offer the same kind of value? As it stands it doesn't look like there's much point in shopping around because nothing else comes close.
