    nice deal, especially with the LED screen, HD3450 and 2 year warranty to boot. but i'm still waiting for the 1555. looks like it'll never come! but i guess they are still trying to remove extra stock

    Under 500? Perhaps on a Refurb, but not on a NEW one....

    The least expensive 'Previously Ordered New' Studio 1537 in the Outlet right now that has the ATI graphics card is $669....and it doesn't have a 2-yr warranty.

    The Outlet is a GREAT place for deals, I agree. But some prefer to order a new one to their desired specs, so for them this is a pretty good deal!
