Best time to buy a Dell laptop?

Hi all,
I’ll be off to Uni at the end of Sept and would like to buy a laptop and take with me. After some research, I’ve decided on a Studio 15 (1555).
Does anyone (or even better somebody who works as Dell Sales Rep or used to) know when it’s a best time to buy? I read somewhere on the net that August/Sept is a pretty good time anyway coz they have these ‘back to school’ deals. Otherwise, I don’t really mind waiting until Oct/Nov if I have to. With Dell though, there seem to be always a ‘sale’ of some sort going…..
Do Dell sales reps have targets to meet? Are they daily or weekly monthly ones? When I call to get a quote with my desired specs, is that the best/fixed price? Do I have room to barter? And will they be more ‘keen’ to do so towards the end of their target dates?
Being a student my budget’s kind of tight so I’d appreciate some help to stretch my pennies as far as possible.
Thank you in advance.

Dell does give discounts to certain schools and businesses. Why don’t you check with your school to see if you could get a deal thru them? On a holiday most stores have great deals. Best Buys sells Dells too.

Best time to buy a DellCrap is NEVER.
There are NO PROs for a Dell computer, they just plain SUK. Here we go: Macs are easy and now you can get a Dual Processor that does Windows also. No other computer can make that statement. A MacBook 2.4, 4 Gigs Ram will do the trick for you. Lightweight and is a Heavyweight in performance. With Apple Stores usually close by it’s easy way to get your computer fixed if it’s a minor problem. They usually do right on the spot. With Dell in particular you have to send it to them [at your cost] and wait for at least 2 weeks to get it back. Almost no one will work on a Dell so Dell’s got you. If you take the time to check Dell’s website everyday you will see the same model computer configured slightly different and with a different price. Deceptive to say the least. Hope this helps you make a decision no matter which computer you buy.
Here’s why you should get a Mac:: There are NO CONS. The MacBook does both WinBloze and OSX, no other computer can make that statement. You have the best of the best. Apple Stores are popping up all over and you can make an appointment for a time and date, bring your computer there. They will troubleshoot it and fix it if it’s a software problem it’s FREE. What other computer company has stores and can make that statement? Get the 2.4 GHz with 4Gigs Ram and you got a speed machine like mine. The WinBloze people may not like a Mac computer but I’ll bet they all have iPods. Go Mac and Never Go Back. Mac, the User Friendly Computer.
If you read the questions here you will notice that most problems are about every computer except a Mac.
