I was leaning towards an HP Envy x360 with Ryzen Mobile 2500U, but this laptop really seems to pack some punch. Plus, it's not an HP, which I consider a plus. But, it seems like I would have to travel to MC to pick it up. IF they have any left, that is.

Seems like a good deal for a general purpose laptop unfortunately I don't need one right now.
C'mon Larry just say no. You recently started a thread on how you need to sell some laptops because you already have to many. You don't really want to add one more to the pile do ya?

Well, the general idea (from the person who told me that I have too many), would be to get one really GOOD one (decent CPU, 16GB RAM, 1080P pref. IPS screen, SSD), and sell off my others.
