    All you're going to get is the notebook - no accessories (except maybe the power brick) or CDs usually included with the regular product; this is clearly spelled out in NE's documentation policy for OB items, as I recall.

    You're taking a chance..... better to spend the money and get a first-tier unit, imo.

    That link says the item has been deactivated.
    Looked like a great deal though ;)

    30 minutes, and it's gone.

    ClearSkies, thanks for the advice. I checked BB site. They lowered the regular price for both G50Vt-X1 and Gateway P-7805u to 1049.99. I probably will get one of these.
