I'll be looking very closely at the screen- R&J Technology were the only ones that listed a 'Super-Wide Viewing Angles' panel as an option, and they were right in line with the others for the bare-bones pricing, as well as withing $10-20 of Newegg for the add-ins I purchased. I have a 128GB Crucial M4 coming to serve as the OS drive.
Also, the reason I'm replacing my Toshiba (which is still a great laptop for the price) is that I wanted something capable of real mobile gaming, something with greater than standard-fare resolution for school, and something with a panel that can be reasonably used for processing photos and video from my Canon 60D on the go.
Thoughts? I'll have pictures posted when it comes in.
