    Sony just introduced a new VGN-870 model and I cant see what the difference between the two is. I can only find the PDF specification for the pre-customized 870 models and when I configure an 870 and a 770 the prices are the same for the same spec!

    Is there any hardware difference? Theres a couple minor differences in available spec. Like no 7200RPM for the 870 (which makes no sense) but is there anything else?

    At least writable bluray is now $300
