Outlet Desktops --> Home & Home Office --> Inspiron Desktops --> Check Availability and Prices (far right). Then click the column heading "Price" and it will sort by lowest to highest. I think that is the secret. You may also want to set a minimum memory or harddrive size. I usually do.

Wow, this is currently the cheapest deal
