Toshiba Satellite P200D-132 which looks to have a very good price/performance ratio....its "only" $890 and the specs

Turion 64 X2 TL-60 2x 2.00GHz ? 2048MB (2x 1024MB) ? 320GB (2x 160GB) ? DVD+/-RW DL ? ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 256MB max.1024MB shared memory ? 6x USB 2.0/FireWire/Modem/LAN/WLAN 802.11bg ? ExpressCard Slot ? 6in1 Card Reader (SD/SD IO/MMC/MS/MS Pro/xD) ? 17" WXGA+ glare TFT (1440x900) ? Windows Vista Home Premium ? Li-Ionen-Akku ? 3.45kg ? 24 Monate

So...my GF is a gamer so i think the HD 2600 should be plenty, and also the 320GB HD space are great. I dont understand why other notebooks are so much more expensive, like EU 2500...she certainly doesnt need a SLI Geforce 8700 and similar. So i am looking for the catch why the above notebook is so cheap but i cant see one.
(The former lappy she had was a satellite too so we think it should be great)

If you have another alternative pelase LMK

Edit: She is a gamer but mostly plays old games 🙂 So..the notebook should be capable of playing stuff like CivIV, maybe WoW etc..etc..but it doesnt need to break records in Crysis etc. because she probably wont play such ultra high-end games.

If I was going to get something for a girl, I don't think I'd go for a 17". But all in all, it looks fine.

If you want a few choices for smaller, but equally powerful notebooks:
There is this one: The Asus F3 - pretty much the same specs (excluding HDD), but it's a 15.4" notebook: http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16834220286 ($950)
If you feel like spending a little over $1k, you coudl get the Asus F8 - 14.1" and the same specs (excluding HDD): http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16834220240
