    Looks pretty good in every department. Fast CPU, fast HDD, more than enough RAM, discrete graphics and the high-resolution display. Its overkill if its just for basic things like email, but if you're writing software or running CAD applications it's just about perfect.

    I got everything like you had, but 100 HD 7200 rpm and 512 MB memory and XP home, regular DVD, regular WXGA and 1.66 mhz dual processor for $1029 shipped with 5% rebate from Discover.

    Everything is great, except the screen. I can survive on that for now.
