    I have one of these. Purchased it last year for $749.99, which at the time was a sale price. I love it. This laptop hits that "sweet spot" in size. Large enough screen and keyboard to be able to use for long periods of time, but small enough that it is not a monster. Perfect size for travelling (unless, of course, I decide to take one of my netbooks). Mine has 3GB RAM, however.
