although its over by about 500 try beat tis http/www.eurocom.com/ unfortunately i cant link direcectly to the configuration get the panther 4.0 and then upgrade it with a ssd and 780m comes out to 3400 or so but ps look at the processor also eurocom offers some of if not the BEST values in laptops and is reputable although you would have to call them about the norway keyboard im sure if you called them they would be willing to help as they are a botique
