    Absolutely. I don't see why not, assuming your giftcard is a Dell one.

    No. You don't get it until afterwards. It's a clever ploy by the company to make you buy it without actually giving you $150 off.

    I've got a $200 card. I'm getting the Logitech MX5000 set, hopefully they'll reduce it in price some from $115 to something reasonable - I think it was around $90 a week ago. I'm also interested in the Dell Bluetooth headphones. Anyone try those out?

    I have the $150 one now Zahn, just wondered if I could use it or not :)

    I was going to try those headphones too. Do they have bigger dj ones?

    So you CAN use the gift card for a DPA payment?
