    I'm thinking of jumping on my purchase with the $450 off coupon floating around. The thing is to get the $1399 minimum, I would probably need to include the External Tray Lightscribe Blu-Ray ROM with SuperMulti DVD+/-R/RW Double Layer with my purchase. My question is - if I don't really need this, how easy is it to sell this? Is there a demand for the HP Blu-Ray ROM? How much can I expect to get if I sell it online? Thanks!

    You don't want to upgrade your screen to 1080p?

    I'd probably buy it off you for a good price :)

    They start at $1299, so you only need to add $100 worth of upgrade(s). There's a 1080p glossy screen for $100, which is worth every penny and gives you the exact amount you need. You can also always upgrade the processor, memory, hard drive(s), or add a slim battery. I suggest upgrading the screen no matter what you do though.
