guys, i'm thinking of getting my hands over this one:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220182
the processor, gpu, memory, HD combo seems the best for me, same for the exceptional price, should i go for it? or is there any other recommendations?

Very nice for the price. I paid about 1000$ more for mine :/ Although i wanted top o' the line at the time.. thinking twice about now!

was it for 2500$ ?? omg!!
after a lot of thinking and rethinking, i guess i'm going for it as soon as possible
(otherwise the 420$ special offer will vanish:P)

Not a bad price... you'd do fine if you went with that laptop at that deal.

But some other things you may want to consider:
1) The 8600 isn't the fastest mobile GPU out there. It's definitely fast, but there are faster... don't know how cutitng-edge you want to be with that.
2) Service and support will be lacking. Asus does not have a next-day-onsite service, nor do they have accidental damage coverage. You'll have to send your laptop in for any kind of service or support.

guys, i changed my mind, i went to toshiba qosmio, same specs except a 200mhz boost for the cpu. because the warranty will still be valid at my country (lebanon). and the qosmio isn't bad:D is it?
