    I tried several coupon with several configs for my E1405.
    And the last time I tried a $750 off $1999+ on Inspiron.
    THe problem is the previous $450 coupon that I entered is still shown together now with the last $750 coupon.

    However, the $450 coupon have problem "The following coupons have been entered but require additional information or do not meet eligibility requirements. Click "View Details" link(s) for more information."

    The $750 coupon does seem to work (no error message), but the total is only reduced by $300 (Inspiron affiliate offer $300 off $999+) which Dell automatically enters.
    WHen I press "Remove coupon", the page refreshes, but the coupon is not removed. What did I do wrong ?

    None of the coupon works for me, even after the minimum total fulfilled before checking out.
    Tried $450 coupon, does not work.
    Tried $750 coupon, does not work.
    What the hell. I can not even remove any coupons.

    SUCCESSFUL ORDER. FINALLYYYYYY
    I tried $750 coupon, but it didn't work no matter what I've done.
    If only succesful, I'd get EVERYTHING for only $1330. But hell, it didn't work.

    I finally tried $450 coupon, and for several hours it didn't work either. I almost gave up and ran to Compaq V2000.
    After logging off for about 7 hours, I did my last attempt.
    The $750 coupon still didn't work, but this time $450 worked.
    I paid only $1322 for $1788 order.
    Much better.

    - Duo Core 2400
    - 2 units of 9-cell battery
    - 1 GB RAM
    - DVD Burner
    - Logitech Z-2300
    - 80GB external HD
    - Audigy,
    - Intel® PRO/Wireless
    - Dell Blootooth
    - Remote control
    - Mc-Afee 15 months.

    Not a shabby deal. Thank youuuuu
