Canon SD200 3.2 megapixel 3x zoom digital camera plus 256MB SD card $229 at Dell

Dell Electronic & Accessories carries the Canon SD200 digital camera plus free 256MB SD card for $299 - automatic 15% off - $25 off $250 code 9BV902H0WXT?1J (exp 1/21, 11:59pm CST, or 2500 uses) = $229 with free shipping. My brother recently purchased this camera. It is very small but still has 3.2 megapixel resolution, a 3x optical zoom, and huge and crisp 2" LCD. Uses the new Digic II chip that goes into Canon's highest-end cameras. This makes for very fast operation. You should see how great the macro mode is on this camera. You can't beat this price!

Dell Dimension 4700 2.8GHz with 17" flat panel $499 AR at Dell Business

Dell Business has the Dimension 4700 desktop with 17" LCD monitor for $599 - $100 rebate = $499 with free shipping but tax is charged in most states. Click on the Outrageous Deals on the left side and then configure the Dimension 4700 at $499.

Pentium-4 2.8GHz HT, 256MB DDR2, Dell Keyboard/Mouse, 40GB SATA
48x CDROM, Integrated Video, 5.1 Audio, Free ISP, 10/100 Ethernet, XP Home
2-Yr Warranty, 17" E173FP Flat Panel Display

You may want to upgrade to CD/RW burner. Can easily add more RAM or a DVD burner later at a much better price than what Dell is offering. This is a very capable and complete system as is and would be fine for just about anything except gaming or video editing.

HP ZE4910US 1.4GHz 512MB Notebook $600 AR at CircuitCity.com

UPDATE: Is temporarily out of stock online. I recommend buying online and choosing in-store pickup.
Circuit City has the HP ZE4910US notebook for $1000 - $50 rebate [Exp 3/1] - $150 rebate [Exp 1/22] - $100 rebate [Exp 1/22] - $100 rebate [Exp 1/22] = $600 with free shipping. I know this is crazy with all of the rebates, but they should all be valid because they are listed right on the Circuit City web site. The first one is for HP and the rest are with Circuit City, so at least you are working with legitimate companies. This notebook has all of the features you need. Even if only half the rebates go through, this would be a good deal at $800. Here are the specs:

Celeron M 1.4GHz, 512MB DDR, 60GB Drive, DVD/CDRW Combo, 15" XGA
10/100 + 56k + 802.11g, Altec Lansing speakers, XP Home, 1-Yr Warranty

I love the Celeron M processor. It's the little brother to the Pentium M used on the Centrino platform. It offers very good performance and a good price. Much better than the older Celeron D processors (with higher GHz) that are still being put in notebooks. See my notebook buying guide for more information.
