    I already posted it in the Asus forms but in case people do not check there....

    Bestbuy website has been updated with Asus G-60 JX at a very good price....the new Lid design looks good also...

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+L...&skuId=9736955

    if the link does not work...then go to www.bestbuy.com and enter SKU # 9736955

    Intel® Core™ i5-430M

    4GB DDR3

    16" LED-backlit LCD 1366 x 768

    500GB Serial ATA hard drive (7200 rpm)

    NVIDIA GeForce GTS 360M graphics 1GB GDDR5 memory

    I think its a great laptop at a very good price and worth the upgrade over the older model. Also check the current Bing cash back also if ordering online.

    Good luck.

    Good that they gave it an i5 CPU, but whyy did they choose the GTS 360M?? Being less powerful than the GTX 260M!

    Ah well... thanks for posting though! ill add it to my list for those i5/i7 obsessed people :p :D :)
