Not too bad for a dual-core 2.1Ghz, that supports Virtualization (think XP Mode in Win7 Pro). Doesn't come with Pro though, comes with Home Premium 64-bit. RAM is expandable to 2x4GB DDR3 (8GB total). On the detailed specification page, it mentions a built-in microphone, although apparently no webcam. Also zero mention of the actual resolution of the screen, but it is likely to be 1366x768 like most of these 15.6" screen widescreen models.
Edit: Looks like it will cost around $200 for 8GB of DDR3 SO-DIMM memory at Newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2%20x%204GB%29
So to get an 8GB dual-core laptop with virtualization, it would be around $600 + tax (at Staples, if you buy in-store like me).
