    Well, the 8100 is essentially the same unit just with a PM processor and no paint job and costs about $300~ less.


    Also, the Acer TM440x series also have Turion +x700 and costs about $450~ less

    Hmm....

    You looking at Pacific Notebook prices?

    Looks like I'm wrong about the 8100, I heard it was like that. Guess that was wrong.

    Hmmm..

    NewEgg has the Ferrari at $2150, the TM8103 at $1769, the TM8104 at $1949, and the 4402 at $1349.
