I went on Thursday to the mall with sum friends (and of course, checked out best buy). I don't have a CompUSA near me, so I can't comment on that store. But at my best buy they had a 9700, but you could only make a down payment on it (dunno if you could buy it, I didn't ask--didn't really care to because I'd never buy anything computer related from them or any other store for that matter. Newegg.com for me!
). If you check out bestbuy.com they have it for $400.
