Nice post... I'll probably jump on this one. Been looking for a sub $600 laptop with a game-able graphics card. Does this come with a webcam, HDMI-out, and bluetooth?
Also... is waiting for a Quad-core deal really worth it? I only use my laptop for simple uses - and gaming sparingly. Any feedback would be appreciated =). What would a person need Quad-core for, that Core 2 Duo just won't suffice?
Looks like it's a G 210M intead of a 120M. I was able to downgrade to black painting cover/grey palmrest (-$18.50), downgrade from 500GB to 320GB HD (-$38), then upgrade graphics card from a G 210M to a GT 240M ($47). Config and pricing below - what do you guys think?

Wow! Got rid of bluetooth (-$18.80), downgraded to the black painting cover and grey (-18.80), downgraded to 320gb ($37.60).
Upgraded to the P8700 (+$103.40)and my order total was $623.92 + $43.67 tax.
Cheaper than my order yesterday for the exact same system plus dedicated graphics and 1 extra GB of RAM. Ordered and going to cancel yesterday's order.
JWANGSDC2 - No, you don't have to own stock. If you do I guess we are all in trouble.
wksound - Have you followed the above information in the OP post? You have to create an account, then find the correct laptop. It will actually say Today's Day E-Coupon under it. Then configure. Then apply the coupon. Should be that easy.
Yeah. Thanks to zx10rrider for the post. I have almost shot the bolt on a couple of recent deals, I am glad I waited for this one. I agree about the video card. If you don't game, take the 210. If nothing else it will make it easier to sell used should you ever want to.
Sounds appealing 'til I saw that the system is crippled by a 5400 RPM disk (nonupgradeable). Also needs a better processor, but the cost of the upgrade kills the deal.
