    Where did you find it for 850? I'm really tempted to buy this laptop but it has a relatively slow processor compared to the Z series...which is of course a lot more expensive.

    It is $1049 on sale now and found an online coupon (can't remember where) that was vaild for 15% off, plus they have free shipping.

    Sorry, it is $950, It was $890+sales tax. I'll try to find that coupon, but it expired today. I'm sure there'll be another.
