    Wondering if I should order a 1520 now or wait until the possibility of a B2S deal before making one? When does Dell traditionally put out the B2S deals? TY

    order it now, and you will have time to cancel your order if you find a better deal.

    Back to school happens now for dell. Think about it, it takes roughly a month from the time you order until the time your receive. So dell is expecting you to have either already made your purchase or should make the purchase very soon. If you don't make your purchase in the next week or so you wont get it till mid to late august.

    When does school start for you?

    IMO B2S sales have come and gone with Dell. These sales are just the aftermath.

    Per a dell rep, these are the back to school sales. They are backed up so nothing will be shipped before middle of August, hence most schools have already started by then!
