    Seems you can do much better than that w/o a coupon.

    I recommend stepping down your RAM, and ordering yourself some aftermarket RAM from newegg.

    If you look at the $649 package, adding the processor and gpu, you end up at 949...then order yourself a couple of gb's of RAM for another 100

    well, the 9 cell battery and complete care plus the web cam are must haves, steping down the ram only drop 90 bucks, after buy after market rams i can only see a saving of 30 bucks or so plus the risk of installing the ram myself
