    Woah, great deal. These E1505's are practically a steal. I can't wait to see what to see the deals next month for school deals.

    my guess is that it's one of the 35-40% off coupons you can get on ebay. At least that's how I got my 1505 down to about 820 having T2400 CPU, ATI x1300, 1 Gb RAM, 80Gb HD, and DVD burner.
