Very sorry for the loss of your personal lives and most of your free cash.
If you want something specific, keep at it and like I said, try it on a weeknight or for a few free hours during a holiday.
529 for the 17" laptop and $399 for a decent E1505 15"er was the cheapest I've seen. Never looked for a desktop so I cant set any benchmarks there.
Script is pretty configurable once you learn the 'language'. I ended up using proxomitron for a while in a general way to filter out some ad sites and whatnot, but I "lost" it when I reloaded my desktop and never got around to reinstalling it.
Theres a 'cost' filter in the script that you can tweak, or use the cost limits on the dell search page to cut off the expensive stuff.
What I did was pick my search with the proxomitron script turned off, clicked on 'price' on the dell web site to organize price ascending, then engaged the script. It holds the sort parameter, so results come up cheapest first.
Look real close at the detail on the systems that land in your cart. Some of them have goodies like 3 years virus protection included, faster ram, a better graphics chip, faster hard drives, etc. Some, like the one I nabbed for my MIL, are really nicely loaded.
