Not sure what's going on with the "Hot!!" car salesman title is all about...but (after taxes) your looking at about a $50 savings (the mail-in rebate) as being the price difference between this and other sellers.
Ok deal..if your in the market for one...but not "Hot!!, let's see how fast I can get my credit card"-type of deal..

as most terms, it's relative. But so far this SALES WEEK, I'd say it's the best laptop deal out there (bang for the buck).

Fry's one day sale (today) has 3 laptops that are better bangs for bucks, but those are 14" & 15.6". This is the best deal going on a 17" laptop that I'm aware of.

right, and that sale is over after today and many of us don't have Frys in their area (unless you can ship the lappy and not sure if theres shipping costs). and yes, this does appear to be the best 17" deal now...

I am sure you could look this up yourself, but USB 3.0 is faster. Not a big deal for hooking up a mouse, but a big difference when hooking up an external hard drive.

RE:

You are correct, since the others have now sold out....by default...this one currently is the best deal. Even Best Buy has a 14" Asus I3 for $380, and a 15" Asus I5 for $480. It's not that this is a bad deal, but it's nothing more than an OK deal if you want a 17" laptop.
