I bought a laptop yesterday. At Office Depot on super clearence. MSRP of ~$1400 I got it for ~$575

15.4" Widescreen WXGA screen
60 gb Hard drive
512 mb RAM
DVD / CD-Burner
Built-in Wireless 802.11b/g
1.5ghz Pentium M processor (Yah, Intel has a good mobile market... wish AMD would catch up)
Centrino power saving

Dimensions: 14.4 x 10.8 x 1.61 inches
Weight: ~6.5 lbs (I think)

I need to get a case for it.. which I'll probably pickup this weekend for around $40
And a wireless mouse to use with it.. I'll probably get that today for about $20

If I feel the need I can get the Extended life battery for $130... supposed to give me ~7.5 hrs of battery life.

I'm pretty excited...

Oh yah, it's a Toshiba M35x.. and Toshiba just got the best rating for technical support (includes competency and customer interaction). Not that I'll likely need to call them...
