    X305-Q701 $1349 7811 $1249 and 6860 $614 is worth the extra money for the other 2 rigs this's my first laptop. I've been reading about people upgradeing the cpu on the 6860. Can someone guide me in the right direction please. :confused:

    If you can get a new 6860 for 614, its a much better deal then both of those.
    Now if you want to fork over an extra 600 for newer technology, get the 7811.
