  *REALLY* tempting, but I'd want 13.3"... damnit

  
  
  Yeah, that .7" makes ALL the difference.

  When you read the spec list before buying there is no mention of the AMD card as being part of the system even after selecting it and even going back abd selecting it again, which i find a little weird as its a decent GPU and for it not to show up when you choose full spec puts me off straight away, im thinking there's going to be some very unhappy buyers when it turns up without it.

  We all ordered knowing it's a glitch. The fact it said "+£80" on the link yet mysteriously took away over £100 made it pretty clear something had gone wrong.
  
  I'll be disappointed if it's cancelled but not angry. Would be a nice gesture if Sony gave all those affected a 10% off voucher or something though. I need a laptop and I'd probably be looking at Sony's Ivy Bridge offerings.

  I think there is 6% TCB too so that would take about £20 off. Shame I really don't need laptop. I think i would add the bluray reader, better display and 8gb of RAM for about £540 before TCB. I don't think i will ever burn a blu ray and £40 for an extra 4GB of ram is not that bad of a deal. I don't know what sony are like with warranty and upgrading RAM.

  A 4GB stick of DDR3 was around the £10 mark recently. At the moment you can get one for £16.79 direct from Crucial.com (free shipping).

  Sure, it is better value but for a budget of £400, the op's deal is unbeatable.

  Popoyaya re: the RAM... In 4gb config this probably comes with 2x2gb so to get 8gb you would have to buy two of the sticks you reference for £34. I can understand that people would be happy paying £6 more than this to have it preinstalled (of course if you go the crucial route you can then sell the 2x2gb).

  u r correct.. about to order.. then when check back final specs the graphics it show NONE...
  Try with other product and it show the graphic we're getting at final..
  
  hmmm... seems like u only be getting i5 with basic integrated graphic.. not as per advertised

  Either i5 will get you the same price but neither come up with a gpu as part of the setup so i would say there's a issue, if the OP originally got one cheaper and it did say with GPU something is now wrong as its more money and no mention of the card and im sure such a upgrade would figure in the full spec which it doesnt and i have followed it right to the end just before credit card details.

  The spec says it comes with 1x4GB but I still think it is worth the extra £24 for preinstalled because it avoids any complaints from sony that the new RAM caused the computer to break or something like that. It also ensures that you get the right RAM for the machine and the specs on the box will match the spec in the machine when you come to sell it. I would never pay apple prices for RAM but £40 for 4GB is not that bad if you are spending £500 on a computer.
