turning over a new leaf.  goodbye to the naive-distressed, passive old self. 

in life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them.  and by waiting, they miss out.  usually, what you wish for doesn't fall in your lap; it falls nearby, and you have to recognize it, stand up, and put in the time and work it takes to get to it.  this isn't because the universe is cruel.  it's because the universe is smart.  it has its own sadistic motivation and knows we don't appreciate things that fall into our laps.

random fact. my mind has an unlimited capacity for useless information....

Back to EBAYing.  I found an excellent bargain on a laptop if anyone needs one.  You need a Dell EPP Code to do this deal.  You can obtain one by contacting your university bookstore or through your company if it is an affiliate of Dell.  The laptops I'm buying are upgraded Dell 700m's that would normally cost $1800+ each for less than $850.   I'm maxing out on five (four to resell and  one for myself). If you have any questions email me at mfontanilla@gmail.com.  Here's the deal.

$750 off all Inspiron™ Notebooks priced over $1,499 (before tax and shipping and handling)

Limited quantities at this price. Online orders only.

2 days only or first 5000 redemptions, whichever comes first
Limit 2500 coupon redemptions the first day - Monday, 6/27

Offer Starts: Monday, 6/27, 12:01am CST
Offer Ends: Tuesday, 6/28, 11:59pm CST
3 easy steps to take advantage of these amazing savings!!

Step 1: Go to Dell EPP
Step 2: Select or customize any Inspiron system over $1,499 (before tax and shipping and handling).  I would go under "recommended solutions" and choose the "entry level" model then upgrade from there.
Step 3: Enter coupon code 22XV4S3RX0K9W9 at checkout
This offer is in addition to your Employee Purchase Program discount of up to 12% off (read the limitations and qualifications for the 12% off.  I believe you need a configuration above $1600 to receive it).

Ultimately, this is the price breakdown.
$1600 - $750 (coupon) - $102 (12% discount) - $100 MIR  + 100 (tax & s/h) =  $800+/- $100

Projected Ebay Price: $1300 +/- $100

You're probably wondering what's the catch?  Why go through all this trouble when I can just buy one straight up for $1100?  In this deal, you get a souped up 700m and a 4 year "at-home weekday/weekend" warranty. Laptop warranties are priceless in a world full of technological uncertainties.  goodluck.
