Hi Maziar and thank you for te answer. Option c) was in fact my first choice but reading the online reviews people were/are having problem with the keyboard. Since i'm a copywriter the keyboard is a really important part of my next computer. I know this is kind of a messed up argument but do you think the keyboard of the ASUS G73 is really THAT bad?

Thank you so much for the help
