Thanks Don,

I checked it out and will again.  Wow, so many options to choose from 
though, I may have a few questions on the essentials vs. a little more that 
I may want on some options.  I am wondering if I can get one that is not so 
heavy weight wise that can still have alot of power and zip to it.  I pretty 
much feel I will be needing the same things one would look for in a gaming 
machine since I will be so multimedia oriented with it.    I also noticed 
the OS did nto come with it by the time I added up options wow ..lol...I 
will have to go through and ask some questions on what I would or would not 
need for what I am looking for.

christy
