Seems like a good deal for an i5 notebook if you don't mind paying a $20 deposit to preorder (they say that stock will be available in about 2 weeks). Cheapest price on staticice seems to be $986.

  They're trying to get rid of it all before the 'Sandy Bridge' chips are released. Buy now, regret later.

    i see. but i think never buy new realease stuffs/things/items/etc..coz you will pay premium. well, unless you are the trend setter - type of person who want to have the latest as soon as possible :)

    try to find "sweet spot" if you know what i mean.

    Yes low end HPs definately leave something to be desired, especially the warranty.

  this is cheap, compared to staticice the cheapest is $986, doesn't matter how crap it maybe, its still cheap compared to all other stores by a fair bit. i thought they addressed the overheating issues in these models?

  HP rated about the worst in terms of return rates in a recent survey by an American extended warranty company. Buy an Asus or Toshiba, who rated best.
