Last I checked it's 2011 and many competitors have this technology in their high end laptops. Sure, there is the Mac experience, but is it worth that much more when Microsoft has made big leaps in usability with Windows 7?

And, before you Mac fanboys pile on me, I own a 2008 MacBook Pro 15, which I bought used, so I do use an Apple product. But I'm about to sell it, so then my only Apple product will be my work iPhone.
I really doubt many people would be interested in a 1900x1200 15" display, 1680x1050 is as high as I'd ever go on that size. On my model a 7200rpm 500GB drive was a free swap with the default, and a 128GB SSD was a $100 upgrade, which is below retail!

I could take or leave blu-ray myself. I don't even remember the last time I watched a movie on a laptop.

You're probably just not the target market. If you want a media center, get an HP.
