    Appears they are $200 off? Is this the same config as the ones that were $799?

    I have had no complaints about mine so far, been playing everything from World of tanks, MOH, COD BO, Fallout New Vegas, Need for Speed etc... And the R1 will run the games between a combo of med to high settings without too much trouble.

    A new updated driver would be nice, but I turned off the on board GPU and installed the latest driver for the 335m directly from Nvidia. Makes the world of difference.

    For $599 its a great deal for what your getting.
