I know it is new but it would be great for tuning a car I think because of how small it is

If you're interested I have a Dell 700M 12.1" glossy 768MB 30GB P-M 1.6 DVD-RW 8 cell (brand new, 4-5 hrs) XP Home (on XP Pro right now) for $500. Faster than any netbook.

This is what you do...go to futureshop...find something you want to buy...find a computer that has internet...check out tigerdirect.ca or ncix...memory xpress...etc...w/e doesn't matter...find the site that has the lowest price...talk to the fs sales rep and ask him to price match that ...they will beat it by 5 or 10percent as well.

Got my z5500 logitech speakers from fs today for 225.99!

I thought they didn't match NCIX, Tigerdirect etc. cuz there are shipping charges as well.

Depends on the guy... some will say they don't... some will match straight up... some will add 1 day shipping and match that.

There is no skills, you just gotta look around at competitors prices before you purchase, for my GTA I got it price matched at Amazon.ca, and funny thing is on Amazon.ca GTA was $34.99 but for brand new online customers you get a $10.00 off coupon code....so I showed the FS guy that and he called his supervisor and price matched it...I actually got the GTA4 for $22ish + taxes = $24.99 :rofl: :rofl:
