This is one crazy cheap laptop from Best Buy. It has an Intel® Celeron® 1.8Ghz processor, 256MB SDRAM, 30.0GB hard drive, DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive, nVidia GeForce4 420 Go graphics controller, with 16MB video memory, AGP support and 3D graphics accelerator; TV-out, and 15" TFT active-matrix display. It is $1,199.99 at Best Buy, but then three rebates bring it down to just $649.99! <ul>
