I need suggestions on what kind of laptop I should buy! I already have the idea one picked out, but its a little over my budget currently, so I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions that could save me maybe a hundred dollars or so, and maybe get me a little more performance for my buck! :P
(Also I live in Canada, so I need some online retailer that would ship here!!
CURRENT PC:
Sony Vaio F-Series
OS:                Windows 7 Home Premium
Processor:   Intel i7 Q740 1.73 GHz (Quad Core)
Memory:     6GB DDR3
Display:        1920x1080 16.4" LCD
Graphics:     Nvidia Geforce GT 330M (1GB Memory)
Optical Dr:   BR(Read)/DVD/CD
Hardrive:      600GB 5600rpm
I bought it for roughly $2000.00 about 2 and a half years ago in store (Overpaid by a nice bit)

What I'm looking at:
ASUS N56VZ-DH71
OS:               Windows 8
Processor:   Intel i7 3630QM 2.4GHz (Quad Core)
Memory:     8GB DDR3
Display:       1920x1080 15.6" LED
Graphics:     Nvidia Geforce GT 650M (2GB Memory)
Optical Dr:  BR(Read)/DVD/CD
Hardrive:     750GB 7200rpm (Plus external usb 3.0 ports)
Taxes and all it comes to about CDN $1350.00 which I'll admit isn't pad, at least in my thinking... From what i've seen the keyboard is also backlit, however it doesn't list it on this particular model, but the casing and keyboard seem identical to other models i've seen video reviews of...

So vgc, any better offers for a canadian laptop seeker? :P
