Here's my thread started on 2/24 re: same Dell. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...ll-costco.html

I'm now thinking of buying the refurbished HP from Costco here- dv7-4083cl only $599 with a 1 year warranty. Great review on PCMag.

I looked at the recommendations in this thread, but the OP's needs were different than mine.

I'm not looking for something small and lightweight - I travel with a netbook. I need something that will serve the same purpose as a desktop machine - weight and battery life are not an issue and I prefer a 17" screen. Definitely need a PC, not a Mac.

I'm considering this, which looks like it would serve my needs but would love to get some feedback: http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product...000000&eCat=BC

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
