Kajdav 23 Posted November 25, 2010 Same principle. I got it because of the video card. This is gonna be my only PC at school, so I need something that can at least play some games, and this was the best deal, so I snatched it up. As for the 4" difference, I think I can deal with it. Considering it'll be in my backpack, I don't think it'll be too big of a deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rivereye 9 Posted November 27, 2010 I carry a 17" laptop around campus quite a bit. It can be heavy, but for me, the extra power and screen real-estate I have on my machine is well worth it. That is a heck of a machine, if it wasn't sold out, I would consider it to replace mine that is starting to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Wizard 23 Posted November 27, 2010 You should have waited for the Black Friday sales, then it would have cost less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fizzex 6 Posted November 29, 2010 Black Friday deals are a sham anyways. The majority of companies mark up the product for the holidays "due to increased demand" and then slash the price down to regular retail price so that they're able to honestly tack on a "Sale" sign. The "sales" boost their margin beyond belief. Sales are better right before black friday when companies are getting rid of older stock to make way for holiday items.

Kajdav 23 Posted November 29, 2010 Are you using it? Yessir! Eh... I saved $130 on this laptop, and that's going from the price mentioned in a review or two. Amazon had it priced even higher than Newegg did, so I guess I may have saved $150. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
