December is a great month to buy a new laptop. If your budget is especially tight, you may want to consider buying a refurbished machine direct from the manufacturer. When you buy direct, you'll typically get a better refund policy and you'll also have more configurations to choose from.

For example, right now Dell Outlet is taking up to $800 off select laptops, monitors, and PCs. The sale includes some of Dell's most popular lines, such as the XPS line and the Alienware m16 R2.
