How the heck did you get it so low? I configured it exactly to your specification, and it came out $500 higher. Is this some special pre-configured model?

Scroll down to Current coupons.
Dell always have some sort of promotion going on. Always advisable to google up Dell+coupon when buying from them. Hope this helps :)
Edit: I'm fairly new here, I think you have thorough knowledge of the coupon stuff. I tried out the config with the coupons to make sure, it comes about right.

^^ What he said. Used the $650 coupon.

Re: Just ordered my Inspiron E1705!
I ordered mine the 16th, a day after the coupons came out and while they had the rebate going on; which I think later in the day the removed. ( I ordered it at 3am)
Standard + 2.0Ghz duo + 17'' Trulife + Geforice 7800 + Intel 3945 for 2072 - $650 coupon - $250 rebate + tax = ~$1265 total net price

Also, when you come to the list of 4 E1750s to customize be sure to pick the second from the right (not the left 2 or the right one). The right one is a solo and the left 2 have unwanted warranties.... unless you want them :p .
