Hi, I dont know of any specific retailers in canada, but what i can tell you is that your price=features equations is definitely not balanced. First of all, 17 inches is as high as it goes for laptop screens, and u can expect prices to START at $2000 Those specs on a desktop would run you a cool $1500-1700.

Ditto what the others said.
But here's something else to think about. Do you really need the portability of a laptop? If not you can buy a much nicer desktop computer for the same money. And laptops aren't suitable for many applications either because they have "Integrated" or "Onboard" sound and graphics, which are crap compared to real components.
