I did some searching and a lot of reviews came from 2006, however that was with the Core Duo and 6 series video cards. You can easily upgrade it to a 160GB and 2GB of ram for not much over $100 though.

It was regularly $1249.99, on sale for $699.99. So $550 off.

There are still laptops to be found that have better specs for $700.

I know, after upgrading the hard drive to 160GB and 2GB of RAM, it was about $850.

I have found that bestbuy and even circuit city are now offering better deals than the much lauded newegg and other "cheap" online sites.

Newegg doesnt have many good deals on the budget laptop side, and you're right, BB and CC have lots of great laptops under $600, that Newegg would charge a lot more for.
