What's this talk of a free xbox? :> Mine just crapped out

Last year, Microsoft offered free Xbox's with Windows laptop purchases to students. I think it was to counter Apple's offer of a free iPod touch to students buying a MBP.

honestly both are good offers its just that atm i would rather have the touch than an xbox cause i already got one... but it doesnt justify for paying such high prices for a mbp. I would rather save that money and get a touch+ ssd for mylaptop

33% coupon + free xbox + free windows 8 upgrade voucher = AWESOME!

... hey! a man can dream right??

Yeah and add 10% more if you use an American Express Card (depending on your card). If only they would just release the refresh my daughter the student will be getting a new laptop, albeit my old one.

The free Xbox code is not stackable with any other coupon. So you have to choose the 33% or the free Xbox. 30 or 33% off will save a lot more than $200 for a free Xbox. Pretty disappointing. I want my cake and i want to eat it too Microsoft!

I had no idea how it worked. I was just going off of posts from last year and it apppeared that the Xbox was a Microsoft rebate and the HP used it's own codes.

If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.. I doubt they will release the refreshed envy before Friday when the 33% codes are due to expire. Will have to wait another 3 cycles or so for the 30% to come back around.

I wish HP would just get on with it already.. You can preoder one at Frys as it is.

Just thought you all may find this funny. Here are 3 machines: Envy-17 3D @ $1246, Envy-17 @ $1169, and the Dv7t Quad @ $1119. All configured as close as you can given option choices with the 33% code applied.

$50 buys you the Envy (over the Dv7t) without the better Ivy and better GPU, add another $70 and you get the Envy 3D still without the better Ivy and better GPU.

The marketing department has certainly made the pricing fun.

Being the skeptic that I am I went and tried it for myself and can't even get the XBOX360 coupon to work by itself.

The 33% coupon absolutely does work and it appears the XBOX Coupon code only works on preconfigured Envy. HP's XBOX promo site says:
