Default Best Buy (B&M) - Sony Vaio Laptop (NR220E/S) - $328.99 (YMMV)

I was tooling around Best Buy today and found this:

MSRP - $749.99, Best Buy list - $699.99, BestBuy.com - $599.99, In stores - $328.99
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1195600207253

* Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core mobile processor T2330 with 533MHz frontside bus, 1MB L2 cache and 1.6GHz processor speed

* Multiformat DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with double-layer support records up to 8.5GB of data or 4 hours of video using compatible DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL media; also supports DVD-RAM

Because of Best Buy's HD-DVD rebate certificates, I got this for $250 out-the-door.

Just remember:
YMMV - Your mileage may vary. Not every Best Buy is priced like this. You can get lucky though.

B&M - Brick and mortar only. Not available online.

Good luck!

give it a shot fo sho. Bring the model number of the laptop with you and have them look it up in the system. It'll pull back inventory numbers for all stores in the region, including pricing (which is set per-store).

2 cores at 1.6ghz, 1gb ddr2, with a dvd writer ... it's not going to run COD4, but for $328 you can't even get an AMD.
