If you are in need of a laptop, Anderson has arranged for special pricing on the Dell Latitude D630.
The minimum configuration is included as part of the base package, but you can add options according
to your preferences. A significant discount is offered to Anderson students through the Dell web site
(below). As prices fluctuate on a periodic basis, the discounted price may be adjusted accordingly.
In order to protect your new investment from theft, we highly recommend that you include CompuTrace (included in price) and StopTheft ($25) as part of your purchase.
You may also need Microsoft Office Professional 2003 or Office 2007, which is not included. Given the fluctuation in prices that we received with the initial quotes, we recommend that you check the UNM bookstore, the Dell web site, or other sources for the best pricing at the time of your purchase.

To protect your system from network and malicious code attacks we recommend that you use the following free applications (commercial solutions will work as well):
The primary benefit of purchasing an Anderson recommended laptop is onsite support for any hardware and software failure. If your Dell system experiences any failures, the STSC staff in ASM 1001 will troubleshoot it for you. If it is a software problem, the staff will be able to rebuild your system the way it was when it shipped from the factory. If it is a hardware problem, a Dell certified technician from the Anderson Information Systems staff will replace the component for you. You will be able to check out a laptop, if one is available, for class while yours is being repaired. Other devices like mice, battery packs, hard drives, etc., will NOT be loaned out. Requirements for checking out a laptop from the STSC can be obtained by clicking the following: Laptop Checkout Program
Support will be available for Dell laptops that are still under warranty and for Anderson faculty, staff and students. Anderson Alumni will also be eligible for support if their Dell laptop is under warranty. Dell units that have a expired warranty are NOT eligible. For those who purchased a Dell laptop from sources other than the Anderson web site, their laptop will only be eligible for warranty parts replacement if a “3 Year Limited Warranty plus 3 Year NBD On-site Service and CompleteCare” is current.
Anderson students can checkout a laptop for their management courses Mondays through Thursdays between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM and on Fridays between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM.
The laptops must be returned no later than 7:00 PM that same day (Mondays through Thursdays, 4:00 PM on Fridays) to avoid any late fees.
Please note that Anderson students will need their UNM ID, Banner ID and a completed check-out form to receive the laptop unit.
Should you have any questions about the check-out program, please contact the Anderson IS staff (asmisstaff@mgt.unm.edu).
