Asus N55SF-S2342V i7-2670QM 6GB
640GB GT555 2GB BluRay 15.6" W7HP

its about £700-800 on most sites.... but its NEVER in stock!

its really odd... but I want one. lol

its alot cheaper than the dell equivalent, but u can't buy it!

You can get a faster GPU and higher resolution display with this:

PCSpecialist Optimus III (i5-3210M, NVIDIA GT 650M, 15.6" 1920x1080 glossy display) - £694
- http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/optimusIII-15/
- You may want to bump the CPU to a Core i3 or i5, because the stock Celeron benchmarks poorly in comparison. The listed price includes the i5-3210M, but that is not a mandatory upgrade.
- Take 4GB of memory, because 2GB is on the low-side for a 64-bit OS. Take 1x4GB instead of 2x2GB if you want cheaper upgradability in the future.
- You may want to go with a larger/faster hard drive. The listed price includes the 500GB 7200RPM, but that is not a mandatory upgrade.
- 17.3" version: http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/optimusIII-17/
