I wasn't too stunned when seeing laptop prices drop like bricks this year except when I saw this machine appear like magic on best buy's shelves this month:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...;ci_sku=9173262

While I realize this computer doesn't have the highest resolution (1366 x 768), it's a ridiculous bargain for 900.00 dollars. A laptop with as much juice as this one would have cost 1700-2000 dollars only two months ago.

It was an all-around machine.. if that makes any sense. But it's Apple.. it was really like a $4,000 computer if built... but of course you can't build a damn Mac, instead you'd have to buy a built one from Mac -.-

lol hella expensive dream.

I just want to be able to sit outside on a computer, and take it around with me. If I get a laptop it will still be for my adobe shit. lol I am simple.



I hear ya. I don't mind the screen size on this laptop.. but I wish the price was lower, specifically because I can find 17" screens for a little cheaper.

Yeah, but I know for a fact they don't come with the processing power that this one has.

Possibly.. I went to Office Depot the other day for a new printer (finally went with laser) and I saw some awesome SONY and HP laptops for great prices.
