    I am updating this thread because I think I have found a killer deal.

    If you click on the dell "laptops and mini's" section and then click on the "25% of Dell SXPS systems" link you will come to this page.

    I was able to build all this for just $1265

    Obsidian Black High Gloss Finish
    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo P8700 (3MB cache/2.53GHz/1066Mhz FSB)

    Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium Edition SP1, 64-bit

    Microsoft® Works 9


    2 yr In-home Service after remote diagnosis + Complete Care

    Edge-to-Edge FHD Widescreen 15.6 inch WLED LCD (1920x1080) W/2.0 MP

    4GB Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1067MHz (2 Dimms)

    500GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive

    8X DVD+/- RW(DVD/CD read/write) Slot Load Drive

    ATI Mobility RADEON™ HD 4670 – 1GB

    Intel® 5100 WLAN Wireless-N (1x2) Half Mini Card

    High Definition Audio 2.0

    Dell Wireless 370 Bluetooth Module (2.1+EDR)

    That looks like a pretty good deal. Thoughts?
