    I found this DV5216cl at SAMS CLUB for$849.46. Is it worth getting or would I be better off customizing the DV5000Z and getting the $50 rebate. Which one do you all recomend getting.

    Assuming the dv5216cl is using an AMD CPU, it's just a preconfigured dv5000z. If its configuration is more-or-less what you want, by all means buy it. The dv6000z is out now though if you don't mind spending more money. See HP's website.
