    10% discount coupon for inspiron and xps NWCJ6TGXFKNH0H min order value 899€ offer valid 5.03.08

    FYI, this 10% discount is stackable with the EPP scheme, so you could potentially (with a system over e1600) get two 10% discounts applied.

    Example: IEDHSONL-N03X7303
    XPS M1730 laptop (T9300 Penryn chip, twin 8800M GTX, 320 HDD raid 0 etc)
    Already has a saving of about e300. With the EPP discount and 10% voucher above, knocks another 500 quid off.
    About e2100 including vat & delivery.

    Lads can any Joe Soap use the www.dell.ie/epp site to purchase from Dell ? I've configured a Inspiron Laptop but can get an

    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T5550 (1.83 GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 667 MHz FSB)

    for the same price as :

    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T5450 (1.66 GHz, 667 MHz FSB, 2 MB L2-cache)

    when i use the epp site rather than the normal site.

    is anybody having compatibility issues when ordering online from dell

    i'm trying to buy a vostro notebook with windows XP pro

    and the website reports a compatibility issue between the operating system
    and the anti virus i have chosen

    but i have specified no anti virus

    the only way this is eliminated is if i buy the system with vista
    or include an antivirus option

    i'm not prepared to do either

    does anybody know why this is happening and is there a work-around ?

    thanks in advance

    i have included a screenshot which shows the problem clearly

    10% off PJ0K?6FDFXHS1W- Minimum order value €899(Inspiron & XPS systems).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 117 ✭✭pauly3


    XPS M1330 for €533.60 on Dell Outlet (www.dell.ie/outlet), with €80 discount and free shipping comes to €547 . Just bought one and another filled its place at the same price! Looks like they are moving stock for the new batch of CPUs.

    The one I got has the following specs:

    Core2Duo T5450 cpu (1.66Ghz)
    1024MB DDR2-667 ram
    120GB 5400rpm hdd
    1280x800 CCFL screen with 2.0mp webcam
    Integrated Intel X3100 graphics
    37watt/hr 4-cell battery
    Intel 3945 wireless (802.11 a/b/g)
    Slot-loading DVD-rw
    Tuxedo Black colour

    The Service Tag was included in the order confirmation and when I checked
    that (support.euro.dell.com) the original ship date was Feb 22, 2008. So I am thinking these are new machines, not returns, and the documentation is Irish.
    Seems like a good deal, especially with the free shipping and discount.

    There is a good review of the M1330 at www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=3826


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,736 ✭✭✭ch750536


    not sure that is a good deal, the basic vostro seems to match this spec for €100 less.

    Just call dell, i had the same issue last week when buying one, they can bypass it.
