    after looking at about a tousand laptops, I think I found what we are
    looking for, but I sure hate to fuck around with that rebate shit. ;-)

    Anyway, I already got it in my shopping basket just waiting for her to
    get off work 'fore I click checkout.

    Any you gurus wanna pick it apart for me. Appreciate anything
    constructive. ;-)

    And if she don't like it...

    She can spend about 24 hours on damn computer and find her own damn
    laptop deal.

    I sure learned a lot about barebone whitebox laptops I wasn't aware of
    though. Particular MSI's offerings. May look at them if I decide a want a *really* high end laptop for low price, low price meaning range of $500
    to $1000. ;-)

    Lot of rat turds out there in computer sales. ;-)

    My 2 cents...

    Assuming she doesn't want and/or have need to burn any DVDs/CDs...
    it looks pretty good to me.

    If I had a little extra change jingling 'round in my pocket, I might go
    in for one and get rid of my 15 pound Compaq I've been luggin' around
    for years.

    Oops, never mind. I think I'll just go back to sleep now....
