What do you guys think if it's below $900 as a bargain?

Graphics are rubbish, you won't be gaming unless its maximum ugly, the SSD is hilariously slow (and at 24GB that is probably flash, not even a real SSD), and at close to $900 4GB RAM and a 750GB is stingy, should be 8GB/1TB. Not worth more than 600.

Hi Ethereal88,

ic, Does the Touch Screen worth a $100 - $200 more? I know you can get 3rd Gen i5 Machine without touch for $600 easy. What do you think about Windows 8 with Touch screen? I'm still using Windows 7.

I haven't heard much people enjoy or like Windows 8 so far, most people still prefer to have Windows 7, unless you are planning to use touch screen I guess.
