Well i picked one up a few days ago and it's a real nice laptop although one major ( to me ) thing is the display which is really glossy and annoys the hell out of me. It's only used for games that my wife some times plays which are like find wildo and for my self which is to surf the net and a few other things. Reason is so i don't have to run a 150+w machine to view websites.

First of all what you think of it for the price ?. Mine was $20 more which has more USB plugs than that site shows.
Is there any with a 17" screen none glossy ?..
Is there a AMD like one around the same price ?. Did not have much luck as for AMD mobile wise i'm not in the know at all.
