Best Buy has a very similar computer for $699.

Not saying the computer is great or anything (the 1440x900 resolution at 17" is a pretty low density of pixels/inch, as I've seen 15" screens at 1920x1200), just that if all you do is browse the Internet and write email and use Microsoft Office, that computer is just fine.
