    This is the first Special Edition I've seen from the updated Pavilion dv4/5/7 lines. It has a silvery/white design with what looks to be green blotches near the HP logo on the lid- very, um, unusual.

    The specs are pretty routine on this particular example- 2.0GHz T5800 processor and Intel 4500MHD integrated graphics. MSRP is $999.99 and there's currently a $50 rebate.

    Just thought I'd share if anyone is wants to take a look, there are five pictures on the CC site- http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/HP-Pavilion-dv5-1159se-15-4-Special-Edition-Laptop-DV51159SE/sem/rpsm/oid/223180/catOid/-18746/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

    personally not a fan of this particular special edition series. I would love the artist rendition on the dv5t but alas it is not to be.
