Dell Preferred Account gave out a $100 coupon that was stacking with $350 off coupon 7/30, everyone ordered a Celeron 530 with Dell 2407FPW HC , and then Dell stopped the stacking next day.

Lets review how he got this.
Find a Dell Inspiron for 349 Add the Dell 2407 to the order at 650. The price now is 999
Subtract the 350 instant coupon
Price becomes 999-349= 650
Subtract the DPA 100 coupon = 650-100
Total price is 550 with free shipping.
So you get a New computer that can be used as a media center pc or sell it dirt cheap at 150 bucks and keep the monitor for a grand total of $598.19-150(sell the pc) = $448.19
Thats one hell of a deal for the Dell 2407WFP-HC
DPA coupons: Expired but i bet a service rep will honor it for the sale
$100 off $999
