If you wanted to buy 20 laptops. Where would you go?
 

Serious question...

Probably Dell. If you are buying 20 of them I don't expect them to be very powerful to spend the extra $1000 etc for a laptop from powernotebook.com I'm going on year three with my Sager and absolutely love it.

My first choise/thought would be dell but I think I would look around for something else to get more for my money.

I'd go with Dell.

The guy that gets them when they "fall off the truck".

Dell.Without a question.I have had a few different kinds and with dell you definately get more for your money

yeh except dell support sucks so if anything ever goes wrong you're screwed.

call em up, you might get a better deal if you order bulk.

id call up lil ray ray and ask him to keep his eye out for laptops falling off of trucks

I'm gonna say go with rayray on this one. Either that or find a shady chinese online store. Most likely one that sells 'nikes' and has ps3's already. And FAPE hoodies.

my guess would be to find a local merchant, not a big company. local merchants would be glad of a huge order and would without a doubt give u a huge discount.

those ones from walmart for $398 have a 15 limit, you can just go in again and buy 5 more

Yeah definitely call them up for that quantity discount.

:1orglaugh specs?! I needed to pick up a new computer for my girl this week... $400 is a steal even if it's a piece of shit.

If you have one in your area, FRY's Electronics. I'm pretty sure they have a business account thing going. They have the best prices of anywhere I have shopped.
Other than that, definitely Dell. Although Gateway is trying to make a comeback, see if you can get a bulk deal there.

The Walmart one was limit 1 last Sunday, and someone I know got there at 6am and there was a line. She got #11 of the 30 they had for the sale, lol.

Call dell and tell them you want the best deal possible.

To some computer shop i gues.

This reply wins the "dumbest reply of the year award".

Congrats. Or not.

:thumbsup

i know some people, who know some people, who rob some people...

best buy???

circuit city??

probably dell

Dell for sure

my wholesaler...

Just HP nothing else

did i wake up in an alternate universe where dell wasn't a complete piece of shit?

its hard to answer your question really... you want 20 CHEAP laptops or 20 GOOD laptops.

you want 20 laptops in the 400-800 range or 20 laptops in the 2000-3000 range?

I get all my stuff from Northwest Computer. They use all certified stuff and are local to me in WA. All there notebooks have atleast a two year warranty built in. Their phone # is 800-735-3410. They are not the cheapest but they have been the best for me.

I agree with the others, definateyl go with Dell. The bad thing about finding a cheap laptop at a retail store is the fact that they really skim on the specs, I'd be willing to bet that the $398 systems from Wal-Mart only had 512 megs of ram which it dedicates some of that for video. At least with Dell you could jump that up to 1-gig to at least have it hold ya over for a little while.

Dell. (adding characters for the minimum post)

a corp. auction....

serious reply - why the fuck do you need 20 LAPTOPS???

always go for the desktop, can't remember how many of my friends I convinced not to buy laptops .......... unless you're planing on having 20 employees working from the beach

I have 7 PCs and 0 laptops, will probably buy another 10 PCs in the next 2-3 months (after I move to Bulgaria)

Wow, that's a lot!

get all toshibas :thumbsup

I'm posting from a Toshiba, it's been good to me.

Best Buy stores are starting to have a business department (Best Buy For Biz) that does discounting for volume purchases. You could see if your local store has one, or they do have a 1-800 number.

damn, i just called and you are right, they had a misprint in the paper today that said limit 15...LOL

I have 2 desktops and 1 laptop, I have yet to use my desktop more than once every 2 days
