Eg if you buy two you get discounts?

My dad is known for his bargining skills and would happily go to PC world as my sister needs a laptop aswell.

Thing is, I'd particulary like a Dell Studio 15. It'd be mainly for everyday use, maybe a bit of gaming and college work.

If you can think of a better one in the shops, please post.

Well it's quite hard to try and bargain over the internet. But PC world actually do sell Dell computers, so it's worth a look just to see if they have the model on sale there. Chances are though the price would be a little higher.

PC world and Currys have signed a contract with dell to resell there products.

:

Dell (http://www.dell.ie/), famous for it’s direct selling model, have signed a deal with DSGi to sell Dell PC’s (http://www.channelregister.co.uk/2007/12/13/dell_dsgi_deal/) through their various chains - Currys (http://www.currys.co.uk/), Dixons (http://www.dixons.co.uk/) & PC World (http://www.pcworld.co.uk/). As well as selling Dell PC’s, DSGi (http://www.dsgiplc.com/) will also provide technical support for the machines.
Customers will now have the option of visiting their local PC store and buying a new Dell computer straight off the shelf. Given that Dell will continue to sell direct, I can’t see them offering any discounts through the DSGi outlets. So on the downside, Dell PC’s bought in-store will probably be slightly more expensive and depending on stock levels, could be more “out of date” than a machine bought direct.

On the adverts it used 2 say

"You cant find us in store, So buy direct from Dell"

Im getting the same one though Dell are really tight on giving out any discounts. Ive tried for a good 3 days.

Usually if you buy in bulk, like 5+ machines you would get a discount, but you only want two so I doubt it very much :P

Toshiba's are pretty good imo, my brother has one and its quite reliable

PC World do have discounts for more laptops. My dad was gonna buy 2 laptops for me and my sister, however, in the end, he thought that it was pointless buying 2 when we already had like 2 other computers at the time.
