    About $1400 USD as of today...but you have to consider that it is in HK and that notebooks in the US are far cheaper. :)

    T9300 (2.5ghz)
    2gb 2 dimm
    100gb 7200rpm
    NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M 256MB
    CD/DVD

    My local had Y510 (non nvidia) with 1.66 for ..
    $599 CAD.

    These are nice, but I had to return it because i just wasn't satisfied.

    HK, you guys pay to much for lenovos, interestingly lenovo is "domestic" for you, it should be cheaper there than in Canada
