I'll be in the market for one of these babies and a couple more flat panels here very soon..Debating on what site to go to for best deal.

If you run a business and spend a few $K for equipment on a fairly regular basis then get a corporate account with CDW. In two years almost all computers and computer parts I bought from them were 10 to 20% off any other low prices I could find.

Speaking of Toshibas; I got burnt with their A70 series, so no more Toshibas for me or for those I am responsible to supply with laptops. I'm happy with HP, Dell (good configuration options and great customer service), and Acer (if you want to save a buck or two).

Hey John, bumping this thread because I want to know how you like your laptop now that you've had it for a few weeks? I'm in the market and looking at the P100-T9772.

You mentioned the keyboard being cramped earlier in this thread. More so than other laptops or just compared to a full sized keyboard? How is battery life? Bottom of the laptop get hot while you are using it? Too hot to actually set on your lap? Have you played with the thumb print security or did that come on yours? Give us the 1 minute scoop or more if you have the time.

I like it a lot, it's basically perfect, except for the very small shift key, which has proven to be a pain in the butt.
