Was just browsing newegg today and saw this, and the specs were ok, is this a normal price for a laptop with those kind of specs? if not can someone find a better priced one?

Imo that's expensive.

My laptop (AMILO Notebook Xi 3650) is a 18.5", Full HD (1080p), 1TB HDD, 7.1 Sound system, nVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512MB, Dual core processor @ 2.66 GHz and 4GB of RAM costed around 1500 USD at the time I got it

Beats my desktop any day.

Cant go wrong with ASUS.

Of course its expensive, its a flagship laptop.

OP, I personally wouldn't buy THAT laptop as I'd want something smaller. And I'd prefer a laptop with a lighter CPU/GPU seeing as how I don't want game on the go really and all that extra power just reduces battery life :\.

Anybody have any links to a better laptop with at least i5 processor and 6GB of ram?

What do you plan on doing with the laptop?

^ SRL and runescape. Whatelse??

You don't need a i5 and 6 gb ram for that.

Video editing, thinking about getting a mac for a desktop later. (later meaning in like 8 months)

GPU = Price premium. Worth it though!

I personally wouldn't edit videos on a laptop but its definitely possible. I am guessing that means you will also be encoding it on the laptop too? Sounds sucky.

My opinion: Buy a nice portable laptop, buy a not-mac desktop later unless you like shitting out money. A desktop will be a better video editing machine no matter how much you drop on a laptop, and by 8 months you will see sandy bridge. Heck, maybe even Bulldozer will be out by then.
