    EVEREX is not a known brand but you can google this laptop and every review says it's amazing. 5/5 eggs on Newegg.com. The CPU is upgradable to a TL-60 and has an open ram slot for easy installation of your own ram. I've already preordered a new IFL90 before I found out about this deal, now I've gotta wonder if I should cancel... so many decisions. :confused:

    Well, if you game the IFL90 is quite a bit better. The Go7600 was the lowest of the past generation's performance GPU's, while the 8600GT is close to bleeding-edge in terms of notebook graphics. The IFL90 is also very reasonably priced, so that you can get a config equal to that Everex (except for GPU of course) for only about ~$350 more. That would be alot for a desktop graphics card upgrade, but for a notebook it's not bad at all.
