    Tigerdirect supposedly has refurbs...

    If you local Best Buy doesn't have one and you don't want a refurb...probably best place is eBay but they are being priced above purchase price now (people got in on the $900 clearance at BB and are selling them for about $1500)

    Best Buy doesn't have it, and I doubt they will have it in the next 4 weeks or so. Also, tigerdirect doesn't have it... does anybody know anywhere else?

    Yeah, Chances of finding them are slim. I called BB Corperate and they said that the laptop is no longer available anywhere, Cause I told them I was willing to drive a state or so over cause I had the next few days off and gas is cheap, lol.

    I was looking at the G50vt-a1 (with the Live cashback) when I ran into the clearance 7811. G50vt-x2 was my original plan but the 7811 just all my plans.

    Again, check eBay and see if they have the 7811's with Buy It Now for a reasonable price (i wouldn't pay the $1500 i've seen them for but anything around $1100 seems reasonable to me) and you can use the Live cashback to make it even more attractive...or the Asus' with it as well. The a1's would have been about $1300...
