Everything on the notebook seems legit, DDR Ram, 80 GB HD, yadda yadda yadda.
Only thing would be the:
3.20GHz & up Intel® Pentium 4 HyperThreading 2MB L3 Cache Extreme Edition CPU
Check this link from Memory Express:

Since a 3.0 GHz exists for the desktop, I suppose a 3.2 GHz isn't too hard to believe.

Extreme edition P4's are available to large OEM's only initially, so there won't be a retail box version for a few months to come. In the recent AMD64/64FX shootout vs the P4EE tomshardware did use P4EE 3.6GHz's against the AMD64's (though he doesn't say it as included in the test config, the benchmarks clearly show a P43.6EE running at a base fsb speed of 200mhz which means it is not overclocked)
It's not unheard of that P4 2.4C->3C have hit 3.5GHz with aircooling and some have been close to 4GHz with waterblocks.

Those are some "pretty good" prices..:rolleyes: Personally, I think I'd pass on a laptop that'll probably last an hour and a half on battery and render me sterile from heat at the same time :P
There isn't anything too out of ordinary on the system, as most of computer are capable of upgrading to 1 gig ram. However, 4gb+ are usually used in a server environments, haven't seem ppl using it on a pc environment, probably because it is too expansive....but other than that......if you got the money you can afford anything....

That's a Vapochill case, basicly has a refrigerator unit inside. The case & cooler unit is about $1000 alone.
Very nice system but the $7800 US, $10,700 Canadian pricetag for the top unit is pretty insane.
