Pretty sweet machine, in NC State red... but I don't ever use it thanks to my work laptop.

I've listed it on eBay, but if someone from TWW buys it - I'll deliver it for free and refund $40.

Reserve is $1400 on ebay as this was close to a $3000 machine.

Stupid BB links. BB has the new model of that laptop, i5 processor, better graphics for under 1000.

Good luck with that reserve.

dude, i just got an M11x Alienware with i7, 8gb ram, 256 SSD for 1700

I don't feel the need to justify the price of the machine, but keep in mind this is a nice laptop that is also a portable 1080p HDTV, Blu-ray player and burner, etc.

Not for everyone, but it has served as a mobile theater for me with all my business travel.
