Am considering this laptop for my wife's birthday in a couple weeks. Best
Buy has it on sale for $999. I'll add another gig of RAM and router.

Thoughts?

Unless she likes laptop keyboards and pointing devices I would suggest an
external keyboard and mouse, either USB or wireless if you don't mind
fooling with batteries. I don't have a wireless keyboard but have wireless
mice on two computers. The one that is used extensively gets 2~3 months
from a set of quality alkaline batteries.
