Laptop Deals - Best Laptops for Sale

Dell via eBay offers its 5.6-lb. factory-refurbished Dell Latitude E5400 Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz 14.1" Laptop for $199 with free shipping. That's tied with last week's mention as the best price we've seen for a Dell Latitude E5400 laptop. Features include an Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 2GHz dual-core processor, 14.1" 1280x800 LCD, 4GB RAM, 80GB hard drive, DVD burner, 802.11g wireless, and Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. A 30-day Dell warranty/return policy applies. A top cover skin, meant to hide any cosmetic blemishes, is also included. Deal ends June 12 at 2:54 pm ET.
