    Yep, it's definitely Canadian money, but it's still pretty expensive. I believe it's the precursor to the 7805u that is overpriced and available on Newegg, but now it's overpriced and available in Canada.

    Yea these were available on newegg before the 7805u was released at best buy. I believe the price was 1500ish. I dont know what they cost now since the 7805u is 1049

    Yep, it's a pretty terrible price. You'd be better off to pay the same for a boutique gaming laptop.

    I was just pointing out it's availability in Canada.
