Am considering this laptop for my wife's birthday in a couple weeks.

Buy has it on sale for $999. I'll add another gig of RAM and router.

Depending on what she'll use if for it may be over-kill.

Yeahbut, she likes it. We skipped the extra gig of RAM. Seems it has only
two slots, one with two gigs, the other with one gig. In order to upgrade
to 4 gigs, I'd have to trash one gig and buy two. Hell with it. We'll see
how it works with only three.

Good luck with Vista! I can still get XP Pro at a decent price if you
want to scrap that OS.

Newegg, OEM?

Haven't checked them in a while. They are a great source for hardware.
I've never bought software from them.

The guys that handle our IT have OEM still available.
