    Hey guys

    First off i don't own a business

    But a lot of people told me i could buy computer through dell small biz for a really low price

    although you have to pay tax in small biz

    is this true?

    Can anyone tell me how i could buy a laptop from small biz as an individual, anything i should know about?

    This is what i did.
    I had ordered an Inspiron 9400, and financed it through Dell.
    I then decided i woudl rather have the D820, because I needed a PCMCIA slot. I used the online customer chat to change the order from an Inspiron to the D820. And they used the same finace info as well.
    No problem.

    I think it depends on your state whether you pay tax or not.
