    Thats a really good deal for what you have for right now. (And if your a student APP is a must if buying HP notebooks).Also BTS sales are in there prime so its worth it to buy now.

    Well we will see. I want the PC Card availability that Dell doesn't offer. I would imagine the 6000t will be all expresscard. It's to hard to buy a laptop

    Errr, might be late here, but if you have a Costco card, it would be adviseable to buy from them since they have a 6 month no questions asked return policy. The price will be maybe $50 more, but I think the return policy is really good.

    When do you think the 6000t will come out. It might make sense to wait for that.
