    Sold out, except you can get a similar config for about the same price using the 30% off coupon NBP61449 (for $999 or more)

    Wow, that sold out way too fast.

    Not as fast as the record holder:
    256GB SSD for 199$ ..Record: 3 Minutes

    At 15 inches you could really go either way. At 17 though I'd say 1920x1080 is a must.
