A $3,800 notebook... what a deal !
If it's one thing a notebook user would pay an extremely high price on it's a notebook that will play High Definition movies.

backing up the hard drive?
burning HD home video to disc (assuming you have an HD camcorder)?
Hopefully in a few years good HD camcorders will be available in the sub-$1K range, BD and/or HD burner drives will be as common as DVD drives are now, and media will be reasonably priced.
Granted, most people don't have a use for this stuff yet, especially at these prices. But it has to start somewhere.
