My upgrade 17" screen series 5 550 P7C Samsung laptop with a i7 3630 QM processor 8GB Ram 1TB HD Blue ray/DVD 2GB NVDIA VID WIN8. $1140 CAN at future shop. Heck of a deal I thought. The Toshiba and Sony with the same specs were cheaper but the screen on the Samsung sold me. To be able to see in all light was worth a couple hundred bucks. My eyes are not what they used to be. lol
