The principle is you are giving Dell £50 so their marketing guys can say 
this series has been a success in their press releases, and let's be 
honest these machines are all about PR press releases which is why you 
can't find them on the site without inside info.

It's a sticker, you don't have to do anything with it when it costs -£50
