Payed just over $550...

What exactly do you plan to do with the laptop?

What is your budget?

The specs on this are OK but not great, especially for that price. Also with Windows 8 and touch screen laptops being pumped out, I'd hold off if possible.

You paid just over $550?!?! That's a great price for what you get cause they retail for about $680.
