The reason I want such a high spec'd system is because it will be a long
time before I can afford to upgrade again and I really need this to be
able
to work well for at least the next 3-4 years without the risk of becoming
outdated.
If you can get it retail, it's outdated.
Laptops have a half life around 1 year (a bit less, around 11 months,
last time I looked at stats.) 4 years is 4 half-lives, one chance in 16
of making it that far in time.
