$348 isn’t bad…but I’m waitin for the real Black Friday deals. I bet Walmart has a laptop for way less than $348 day after Thanksgiving.
I am waiting for new Windows 7, vista is a nightmare!

Why take a chance on waiting? Buy one now, and if there’s a better deal on black Friday, return it.

Hey, Mike O, great idea. Although I just went and bought one, and there is only a 15 DAY RETURN POLICY on this, so please keep that in mind before buying.
The Wal Mart dude thinks that they will be advertising within those 15 days for black Friday, so just wanted to let you all know!

Why wait until black Friday when you will have to get in line at WAl-Mart at probably 2 a.m., to fight for a laptop, to save $$. Depending on what you need a computer for it is a great price, I got one today for a relative.

Microsoft Works which is a subset of Microsoft Office usually came with most laptops and computers when purchased. The Acer that I purchased for $348.00 did not have Microsoft Works included although the owners manual said it might have Microsoft Works 8.5 depending on the configuration. Maybe that is why it’s so cheap. In any event you can purchase Microsoft Works 9.0 for $40.00 or less.

Don’t buy Microsoft Works if you computer didn’t come with it, just download OpenOffice for free. It supports opening and saving in the Microsoft office format and is very similar to Microsoft Office all around.

I bought two of these and didn’t have to wait in ANY line – I actually got there early (about 7:30) and picked up TEN of the HD/DVD players… had a handful going to friends, some for presents and the rest will be ebay’d. As for the laptop again, there isn’t much of a better deal and I was glad to get them for gifts as well. I know BF is a mess and I can’t stand lines….. If they sell a laptop much cheaper you’ll be lucky.

Sow- this deal is over unfortunately. I’d suggest taking a look at the Compaq C712US at Staples or the C717NR at Circuit city-

You’ll be getting what you pay for. Ahh, the sub-species shoppers at Wal-mart.
