    I've been looking at buying this laptop, but I thought I would ask here first. I haven't been able to find very much information on it.
    Could anyone tell me any experiences they've had with this particular model? Is this a good deal for what it comes with? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi and welcome notebookreview!
    The notebook you're referring to is $1470 USD on newegg , so memoryexpress is charging a little more for this particular model. I'm also not that surprised since this model seems like it's exclusive only to the US market. Nevertheless, it still seems like a good deal given all the high end specs on this system :)

    Thanks for the Information! Newegg does not ship to Canada apparently so I'll have to pay what I originally expected. :p
