    Try not to multipost. You have 3 threads asking the same thing.

    The fact that the shipping is only insured for $100 and that the seller only has $200 buyer protection is worrying me. Otherwise it's nice

    No, HDD, no OS. I guess 1000$ is decent then.

    I'd also say $1200 max. I don't know about the yellow thing in the screen he's though. That's something I would want to see in person if I were a potential buyer.

    I think 8800 + 9300 is good. I just wanna get a rough figure, since I ordered a HP 8510 already, if I like your deal then I should cancel that ASAP.

    I woulda waited for the m860tu, but I need a laptop like right now, since I go to California (from Canada) for an one year internship starting June 1st. Does anyone know how reliable is PCMW's shipping date? 2nd week of June.

    As reliable as any shipping date. But when on a time-limit,never push it.
    Z-s laptop is more than perfect for your needs.And the 17 screen is better :p

    I am still waiting for the PM from Z, its pretty bad timing for him though

    I can get t9300 8800GTX from PCMW for 2K(i have my own OS) brand new right now due to the sale.
    If I switch from my 8510p to 17" laptop, then it is no longer mobility that I want, it is power! So RAMBO's machine for $1850 looks nice too.

    I will see.

    imo yes its a killer deal from pcmw.. ill be a little bit less but not much.. my machine is as new.. if you didnt know i owned it you would not know it didnt get shipped right from sager.. its that perfect. so totally up to you which way you ant to go .. i do have a offer on the table of 1850 to be honest... im kinda waiting for a response from him before i go further. rambo's is a awesme deal except its a very large machine so it depends how bad you want to be able to get up and go with it.. the 9262 is BIG
