ya for 799 its a damn good deal... best buy had them for 749 this week but they were all sold out, so i had to pay 50$ more at micro center... for the price range its the hottest laptop you can get from what i've seen.

dell is probably the only other company to come close but you get intel & no brightscreen/lightscribe :goodjob:

^ see the lightscribe logo on the bottom right? if your burner/system came w/ it you would probably see that

lightscribe sucks its not even in color yet. cool technology just not far enough along for me to want to buy a lightscribe drive... is it just 64 bit or is it dual core 64 bit. big speed difference between the two.

I have to computers now with lightscribe drives, but never even tried it. I guess I will someday just to see how it is.
