    Hello, I bought a G51j-x2 2 weeks ago from tigerdirect.ca for 1,349.97$ Can, I am greatly satisfied with it but Last night as I was looking at some tigerdirect specials I noticed that they had the G51jx-A1 in stock, The A1 for people that dont know the difference comes with 6gb of ram compared the the 4gb with the x2, a 500gb hard drive compared to the x2 witch only has 320gb and finally it comes with a asus branded razor mouse and a asus branded targus laptop carry bag. I would also like to mention that I called tigerdirect and they said that the next shipment would arrive on the 8th of April and that the price would be arround 1499.99$ Can. So my question now is should I return my g51jx-x2 pay for the return shipping pay an extra 200$ to get 2 more gb or ram, more disk space, a razor salmosa mouse and a laptop carry bag, or should I just keep what I have.


    Here are the tiger direct links
