I'm looking for a laptop with this kind of real estate, I can't find a better deal at the moment, and would love to get a better price for the specs, regardless of make.

This thing is only 150 more than a low end laptop I was looking at for classes...I think I'll go with this one
 
rememeber Bing on top of that. I got on of these laptops on the 999 deal. Been playing games for me alright (l4d2, HON).

Hard to find a good laptop bag for something this big though 😀

They canceled my Bing on the first deal. Something about already using a code to get the original deal...

I pd 1065 delivered tax and all. Can't believe it went lower!

It IS an amazing laptop.....that I never carry.

I'm just going to order it with the bag. I'm not that worried about the weight.


If I could just get the site to load...It keeps lagging out on me halfway through the order.
 
would have seriously considered buying this when they starting offering coupon discounts, but the graphics chip needs to be a few models stronger to match the rest of the hardware.

That could help keep the price down. It isn't for the hardcore gamer, but is all anyone else would need. Did I mention I LOVE MINE!! :wub:

Damn all I do paste it. ANyway thanks for the non working link
 
ordered mine yesterday! Got that, and a targus carrying back for 1000 after taxes were figured into the equation. Plus I'm getting about 200 back from bing!

Sweet!
 
I'm fighting Bing for the 5% they canceled on my order from the last deal.....good luck to others on the current 20%.

Honestly, the $50 is small to how sweet this laptop is! I'm Happy at $1065 delivered. If you guys hit $8-900 that is awesome!

I'd still like to see that fifty tho'.

Good luck on the Bing guys. Mine was cancelled...which I fought them over. Here is Bing's response:

So is it Bing's fault or HP's? It sounds like HP's....I'll be pissed if I don't get my cash back. They advertised and lured me in via the 200 buck incentive. I would've gotten the next model down if I knew they were jagging people.

HP has always been pretty hardcore about ONE and only ONE incentive at anytime. I wouldn't put it past them to lock you out of BING for using a coupon.
 
Well, I pasted a direct email. Bing says it's HP's fault, but I never ask HP, lol.
I'd be happy to lose my $50 so you guys get your $180...but don't bank on that 🙂.

Keep all your emails and such just in case..
