I got an email from Toshiba today offering 20% off customizable laptops. I started with a basic configuration and upgraded to an Intel T7250 chip, ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600 graphics card, 2GB RAM, Vista Home Premium (that was 20 bucks!) WSXGA+ 17" TruBrite display at 1680X1050, dual 120GB hard drives, and, the best part, an HD DVD player that doubles as a DVD/CD read/write drive.
Then I tweaked the wireless from a/b/g to a/g/n for $20, threw in Bluetooth and harmon kardon speakers, and lastly upgraded to the 9-cell battery.
Adding all those goodies generated a list price of $2112. Knock that down by the 20% discount and it's $1689.60. Not cheap, but not bad either. And, you could trim this configuration down and still have a 17" laptop that plays HD DVD movies.
