I'm not very good at diagnosing specs vs prices, but I would almost say it's a bit pricey. I personally wouldn't pay that much for the specs.

What exactly are you looking for in a laptop?

It does seem pretty pricy for what it offers. If i were doing it, i would lower the processor speed to maybe 1.8 ghz and the hard drive to 80, and this would take off several hundred dollars and make the laptop look much more appealing. If you want to spend that extra money, spend it on accidental damage warrenty. You will kick your self hard if something happens to your laptop and you didnt get it.
