So, new laptop is coming up... Planning on pulling the trigger on something on Amazon on Black Friday- might be able to save a few bucks. Haven't decided, leaning towards MBP.

But Buzz mentioned something in the Laptop Help thread that got me wondering- is there a certain date or time of year that's best to purchase computers and peripherals? Or is this (being black friday & cyber monday) the time to make ones purchase?

I'm going to need to pick up a few extra items, among them extra RAM, a SSD, and copies of Windows 7 and MS Office. Will the best deals be available in the upcoming two weeks?

No Mac? So disappointed. :hs:

I said leaning towards MBP.... :devil2:

Come to the Mac side.. :uhuh:

Instead of buying an SSD afterward, get an SSD as your main hard drive if you can. Definitely worth the extra price and you'll never regret it.
