$4,000.00?!?! WOW!

I'm sure you get this all the time, but.. build one. You'd get better specs and save .. in your case, thousands.

I'm getting the 7800GTX as well, but not until next year. By that time, it will have dropped $300.

Actually, if you knew how cheap I was getting the 7800 gtx, you would hate me very very much.

Not to be an ahole but the 4k is not much to me honestly. Besides, I sold a few excess items that paid for much of the 4k.

Me and a few buddies have lan parties and mobility is key for me.

Good. You now have blue-glow-compliant hardware. All computers are legally required to emit blue light from 20,000 unnecessary LEDs.

Nice benchmark screen images. For some reason, I find your laptop extremely attractive too. As a computer of course.
