So I bought one for the wife and me for Christmas. We were watching the price at hhgregg drop nearly daily, I guess they were clearing out the stock. We called around and found ONE in Atlanta. Anyway, we ended up paying $350 for it.

I'm really happy with it. It turned out to be a pretty stout laptop for gaming, and even wirelessly, it browses faster than both of our desktops.

The only problem I thought I was having was with the WLAN. I couldn't get it to find any access points. Then I loaded up the owner's manual CD-ROM, and found that one of the little silver buttons at the top turns the wireless on and off. :D

No problems whatsoever after that. :goodjob:
