Looks cool.  But I have to nix it just on price - I got the insurance
summary today and I've only got about $600 to work with to replace the
old laptop.  

I'm thinking this Acer instead:

I wish they made these things in interesting colors.  Variations on
black seem to rule the laptop world.  Target and Best Buy appear have
comparable systems.  I may run by there tonight to look them over.

Before I got the insurance stuff I guessed I'd only have about $400 to
work with, so was thinking of this Acer:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834314104

At least it was red.
