    So I took advantage of the sale on lenovo canada to pull the trigger on this computer for my dad:

    LED, 2ram(1dimm), basic processor, 250gig hdd.
    1391$ all included.

    How'd I do?

    OUCH. I guess it's a good deal. I like the way you got your RAM.... leaves room for expansion.

    Why does it have to be competitive? If you like your machine and are happy with what you paid, who cares what someone else thinks?

    I managed to get basically that, with discrete graphics, fingerprint reader, camera, bluetooth, intel 5100 wireless, 3GB ram, 160gb 7200rpm HD, for $1385 including tax. But I didn't purchase the extended warranty. Oh and I live in Canada too. I'd say you did pretty well considering you got an extra warranty.

    That's not too shabby of a setup and considering that you got the extra warranty, I'd say you did great.
