    This laptop is going on clearance up in Canada - its going for $647.00 in-store at Staples (Online catalog shows OOS) - but I found this in the clearance section at HPShopping.ca.

    Specs:
    Intel C2D T5450 - 1.67 @ 667FSB
    nVidia 8400M GS 256MB
    HDMI + S-Video + VGA out
    15.4" WXGA Screen

    Unlike the US site, No customization of systems are possible on the Canadian Site.

    I'm not an expert on HP laptops, so if anybody knows of any reason why this laptop is a bad deal, please speak up.
    Right now I suspect that they're clearing these out because of the HD-DVD drives on them, but that's just my hypothesis.
    Can someone tell me if this is similar to the laptop in the dv6700t review? Thx.
