I just received an email flyer from Dell touting back-to-school deals on notebooks and other gear. The deal that caught my eye was the one for the e5400, a 14.1-inch notebook that is now $679. That special pricing is for the bare-bones configuration but it’s not too bad with a 2.0 GHz ULV processor, 1 GB of RAM, 80 GB HDD, WiFi (no Bluetooth) and a 6 cell battery. You can always custom configure one at Dell but given that pricing of netbooks is inching up this e5400 deal is pretty sweet.
