G50VT Super Double Barreled Rig
I recently purchased this item from Amazon and i am pleased to inform anyone interested in purchasing this rig do so without any fear. I now have the laptop 1 month and it is working fantastic it is fast it has been very reliable thus far and it does exactly what I want, a machine for work and play. The specs as advertised is exactly what you get. (NOTE)It has VISTA PREMIUM 64bit OS, it does not have a TV Card or a Modem.
Con: The only reason I will not give it 4 stars is because it should have a BD in stalled as standard.
