    15.4" screen with trubrite tecnology
    Ligtscribe DVD burner

    Link to the sale? $500 is pretty good. Thats about how much I want to spend on the wifes notebook, but mostly waiting to get her a MSI Wind.

    Here is the link.
    The computer on the first page on the left top side. The CPU came as T7500.

    Great deal if it's really a T7500 and you can get your hands on one with that price.

    If its $699,then thats not much of a deal.

    I think it is like 6831FXs with the T5550 CPU but this time the difference is huge. I would highly recomment checking it out at your local OD store.

    Picked one up yesterday, it does have the T7500.

    Everyone else on fatwallet and slickdeals are confirming their units also came with the T7500.

    The in store price is $605, after mail in rebate it is $480. Last day of the sale, so if you can find one, buy it! I am happy with mine.
