What would YOU buy?

[giblien]

So, in may or so I will have about $1500 to spend on a gaming laptop. In order to get a variety of ideas, I was wondering what system YOU would buy with the following constraints.

1) Your budget is $1500 (give or take $150)
2) It MUST have a backlit keyboard
3) It MUST have a bluray drive
4) It MUST have HDMI out

What would you do?

Thanks all!

If I had to buy right now,I'd go with ASUS G53JW;otherwise,I would wait for SB notebooks to come out.

I'd buy a SB laptop ....They arrived on the scene on January 9th, same as the desktop MoBos.

The Clevo 150HM or 170HM meet all your requirements except backlit KB. I'd inquire about warranty issues related to the SB defect before buying tho.

The Asus G53JW-A1 would be a fine choice, it's not SB though
