Paul. I do most of my electronic biz w/ Circuit City or Best Buy. I would check their websites first. They have stores all over the country. Here is a link to what I think is a good deal. The screen is a little bit smaller than the one you talk about but it is a good price and good options. Plus as I say, I am a Sony fan anyway.

BTW, if I were buying a laptop I would for sure wait till Thanksgiving. We do all our shopping for large purchases the day after T'giving. It is called Black Friday and EVERYONE has awesome deals on computers, tv's and etc. It is well worth the wait.

We use this website............. http://bfads.net/ It is awesome. They leak all the Black Friday ads before they come out. You get the upper hand on where to do you shopping and who will have the best deals. I highly recommend saving this site, waiting a month and start watching the site a couple weeks b4 T'giving.
