I cannot find the catalogue on their website so I have to scan the relevant page in. The Good Guys in Sydney Alexandria is selling Compaq Presario v3118au for $999 — from 28 Feb to 11 Mar.
It is one of the cheapest dual-core notebook you can buy. The spec is not clear in the catalogue, but it is not too hard to find it on the web. It says "512Mb + 512Mb DDR2 667" where regular v3118 only comes with 512Mb memory, however I doubt it actually comes with 1Gb because v3118au only takes 1 DIMM.
