base model is 940.00 shipped.

go to hpshopping.com to buy lappy

For anyone who misses it, Costco has the laptop and they give a small (about $60 bucks it seems) savings over buying from HP Shopping. That is of course, again, if you miss the 10%.

Is anyone using both academic and 10%? How are they verifying?

Yeah those are good too. But remember, the x1000 only has 2 ram slots so if you get 256mb worth of ram, then ur max would only be 384 assuming that you got the base model with 128mb ddr ram. BTW.. the Dana brand is pretty dependable. I have a couple of Dana chips in my main desktop.

Turns out that Costco gives you ANOTHER $100 off. Now you don't have to rush to buy from HP. The same deal (almost) can be had from Costco. I am not counting the 5% discount since I cannot get it.
