    Does anyone have this? Any thoughts? Praise? Complaints?
    Newegg.com - Acer Aspire AS5560G-SB485 Notebook AMD A-Series A8-3500M(1.5GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory DDR3 1066 500GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi AMD Radeon HD 6470M
    I think the price just dropped today, it was listed at $614 previously.

    Its only the 2nd laptop I have seen based on the AMD A Series with an additional dedicated card for crossfire mode. Too bad the Processor is the top of the line and the dedicated card is one of the worst available. If they switched that scenario I would buy it. I still like the ASUS K53TA more but they are impossible to find.

    Here's the non-bestbuy version, the A53TA. But it's going for $599 right now. I bet it'll drop a bit over time tho.
