    Intel Dual Core 2 Processor with 2.0GHZ speed
    2gb DDR2 Ram Memory
    100GB 5400Rpm hd (worth it for me)
    Dual 512 GEforce 7900GTX Graphics card :P
    DVD Burner with CD Burner
    Windows XP Media Center Edition with Free upgrade to Vista Premium
    Integrated A/G/B Wireless card with bluetooth technology
    LCS Screen with 17' of kickass screen size XD
    and a kick ass color of dark black XD or just black gradient with a silver or greyish shiny keyboard and lots of room XD

    by those desc's, hell yeah....

    2gb of ram is awesome, its very expensive atm, for laptops or desktops..

    I'm not sure on the processor and gfx card, I'll let Xelink do that bit.

    100gb hdd, good for any gaming/gfx person

    DVD, standard these days...

    MCE, good, just never switch to Vista, It's still very buggy, still in beta tho...

    17" lcd, good

    wireless, good, no wired shyt...

    Yeah but one problem :(
    When my parents said that they would buy me this laptop last night
    I said no to them from no freaking reason why I did that :(

    Plus the sale ended yesterday I believe
    so this laptop is back up to 2700 now :(

    I doubt it
    i was only given 1.5k bucks in check format from my mom
    she just decided to add an extra 200-350bucks for me :(
    and that is all I get for college :(

    try at ibuypower or cyberpowerpc. you could get an awesome ststem for that much, might have to tone down on the video a bit, but, laptops are usually not for gaming anbyway..

    yes, but there is a fine line between good and gaming cards

    a x800gto is fine for gaming, just not the high end.

    as I said above, ibuypower or cyberpowerpc are excellent for laptops and desktops alike.

    rather you favor amd or intel, they have both.

    you can choose what you want in it, they'll put it together for you
