Compaq UK is running a reseller price promo throughout in May. In other words the dealers get the discount and then it's up to them to decide how much to pass on to Johnny Punter. In practice, the customers will get, more or less the lot, so street prices should come in at up to 20 per cent cheaper than Big Q is currently quoting for typical Buying Prices

The first price promo is for selected Armada E500 and 110S notebooks, some Deskpro EXm, and a couple of Compaq projector.

Compaq may have two more reseller price promos up its sleeve this month. ®
