Black Friday at Rentacomputer.com - $269 Notebook

Rentacomputer.com will have Dell D600 laptops available for $269.00 plus sales tax ($286.49). This will be for Friday 11/27/09 from 9AM-11AM ONLY! If you miss the sale the laptops go back up to $299.99 and is only while quantities last (we have approximately 10).

I've dealt with Rentacomputer in the past, and here is what I understand about these laptops (and correct me if I'm wrong). These aren't "refurbished", but rather, they are "used". Rentacomputer rents them to companies both locally and nationally and after they've been rented ("used") a few times, they put them up for sale.

I only like to point out the difference because "refurbished" means it was broken, then fixed, and now is being sold again. This is NOT the case with their laptops. These laptops have been rented a few times and now they are wiped clean and are ready to be sold as "used".

I personally own a couple of computers from Rentacomputer, both laptop and desktop, that were "used" when I got them, but you'd be hard pressed to find any problems with them. I got a killer deal on them, and they work great. One of the boys that worked there when I bought it told me this:

"These things go out on rental, sometimes 100's at a time, to big companies. Often times many of them never even get touched, but the companies want extra there 'just in case'. Some of the laptops we sell probably have never 'really' been used, other than by the technician who set it up."

Correct me if I'm wrong Randy, but isn't that how the whole deal works?
