    Hi guys
    I am looking to buy one of those two laptops, from newegg, Canada, and I just can't understand what's the big difference between those two, because the price of the Pro-099 is $500 more!

    Please, can someone explain me, what's the big difference of Stealth Pro-099 that it costs more by 500 bucks?

    Is it only the +3gb of graphics card?

    Which one would you buy?

    The more expensive one is priced oddly if you look at our listings and compare the difference between the two models in the US. :)

    Thank you Meaker for reply.
    I also thought it might happen because of the Canadian dollar depreciating. They probably receive the first one earlier than the second one... And because the CAD is losing ground fast, there's the big difference between those two..
    Will probably buy the cheaper one today :)

    That's terrible, wasn't it a minor change? Hopefully it's not too much of change because it can be a dramatic issue to a lot of people.
