By the way, if you're already knocking the i7 "u" series, then why are you offering an i5 "U" for $875? Just saying.. .

That was exactly what I was saying about the importance of the CPU vs. the GPU, but you make a point about the "U" series processors. Still looks like a good machine, especially if he can negotiate the price. Check out the going prices for comparable setups, and that's buying blind. He can have...
