    Looks to be quite a good laptop....congratulations..!!

    Since it is Windows XP Pro, would advise you to download an XP CD and do a clean install to remove all the bloatware once u get it....!! Will make that machine work alot quicker and will help you to get rid of any possible future problems.... :)

    How much did it cost..??

    Thanks for the heads-up on the bloatware :eek:

    Cost for the laptop was $1,139.00 plus $5.00 ecofee (all prices in Canadian dollars). Add the other stuff and taxes the total is $2,300. Funny the ecofee for the monitor is $12 vs the $5 for the computer :confused:

    Cheapest Canadian web price I could get on the laptop $1,109, so I am pretty happy as I have very satisfied with the service my local guy has given me in the past. Acer MSRP is $1,299.00
