Cut straight to the chase. Here are the specs. I have just mentioned those that matter.
2.8 GHz Intel Core i7-2640M dual-core processor (3.5 GHz with Turbo Boost Technology; 6 MB L3 cache) [Top of the line Processor]
500 GB SATA hard drive (7200 RPM) [Good thing that it is 7220rpm and not 6000rpm; 500GB is not impressive, though it is not an issue these days with external storage devices]
6 GB of installed DDR-3 RAM [Maximum is only 8 GB and not 16. Believe 8 is sufficient for a long time to come]
NVIDIA GeForce GT 525M graphics [Good for Occasional Gaming. Considering the price, this is what you could expect]
8-cell battery [Tested to last a 4h 36min on a battery test. Not comparable with MacBook, but again consider the price]
Backlit Chiclet-style keyboard [Nice and comfortable keyboard and touchpad]
Bluetooth 3.0
2 ultra-fast USB 3.0 ports [A must these days]
Summary
A MacBook competitor that competes mainly because of the price. All that considering the deal below.

Other notebooks you might want to check are the HP Envy, Samsung 7 Series. I don't mention the other brands because they look good on paper, but is still quite difficult to put your money on them.
