Nothing special, i7-quad is nice but the graphics are weak for a $750 laptop (Intel HD 4000 is probably faster). You should consider the Lenovo Ideapad Y570 for $30 more; same quad, much faster Nvidia 555M (it's the cut-down 555M so it's more like 550M, still pretty fast). http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:category.details?current-catalog-id=12F0696583E04D86B9B79B0FEC01C087&current-category-id=F41BC8E1656C5F85171FBDB172571912&action=init

Hmm I was a bit leery of the 610.. I do thank you for the link It looks much better than what I was looking at.
Sadly though I looked around a bit and finally hit the "buy" button around 5 mins before you responded, lol. Now for the pain of returning an item, yay :/
