Where to buy laptops in bulk?

I need to get approximately 20-30 laptops for work. I have a list of specifications that I need to follow. What's the best venue for buying this many at once? A big chain like Best Buy? A smaller store like Microcenter? An online retailer?

And no, they can't be refurbished! Refurbs NEVER work with our software

Figure there's enough IT guys on here that can help me out!

Give pcconnection a try...sometimes they have bulk discounts.

you are going to need to actually talk to them on the phone to try and get a better price....doubt you will be able to do it from the website

Don't count out Tigerdirect or Newegg either...they would probably give you a bulk discount.

You can likely get a discount directly from some of the vendors, depending on what you want.

My experience - Lenovo are the most reliable, and Dell has the best service

Get a Deal with Dell, HP, or Lenovo - they are the people that cater to biz
