    This is the best price that I have seen on this notebook ever so far... $1155 taxes in. Specs are below.

    I would make this purchase and then upgrade with a mSATA drive and another 2GB of RAM later on. I do some gaming with Flight Simulator X and Modern Warfare 3 but this is primarily a work notebook. From what I've heard I shouldn't have any issues.

    Anyone see this configuration at a cheaper price in the last few months???
