1. Yes, it is very very good price. Haven't seen anything this good in a while. The processor is similiar to core i3 and wipes the floor with the core i3(even some core i7s) onboard graphics in video performance, and, after seeing my friend's dv6z laptop, it is very power efficient and cool to the touch, around 30 degrees. An added bonus is that the laptop can be overclocked to achieve core i5 performance leve if you are into that kind of stuff. The blu-ray itself is an 100 dollar upgrade btw.
