Elitebook 8460w B2A89UT...really good deal?

Ok...I'm a little befuddled here...This HP Elitebook 8460w seems like a great deal and the specs look good, but is it really a great computer? And it is Ivy Bridge right? I can't seem to find many reviews of the comp.

Is Rakuten (formerly buy.com) a fine seller to deal with? Anyone have an experience with them?

 

Ok, I am going to answer all your questions xD
1. No, it is not Ivy, it's Sandy Bridge.
2. It is a VERY good computer!
3. That's an awesome price, and if I could afford it I would upgrade!
4. I have heard good things about Rakuten.com - Computers, Electronics, Digital Cameras, Books, DVDs, Music, Games, Software, Toys, Sports so I would say they would be similar.
5. If you are looking for Ivy Bridge you have to get the 8470W

Hope I helped a bit

 

Yes, thank you t.saddington! Indeed, you were very helpful! I see you have the HP DV6. Is that the Dv6z model? Are you pretty happy with it? Which is clunkier, your Elitebook or the Dv6?

 

Hey, yeah I have the DV6z but I barely use it. It has too many faults (like the hinges and screen) so yeah The Elitebook is much clunkier than the DV6 but the build quality is outstanding and I really love it
