I think the brand new price at most places is around $740 or so. This probably isn't that good of a deal, hence the reason I didn't put it in the deal forum. If you have LOADS of GameStop credit and are in the market for a laptop, you could do worse. They don't give the model name on the website, but after some searching I found an Asus Model that has matching specs and pictures. Interesting that GameStop has this. Anyway, all relevant information below. Found this by random. Wondering what you guys think.
