Do you think the older sandybridge would take a price dump when Ivy Bridge gets out, it think the "old" technology would be enough ?

Lol don't listen to Ram1009. He's dumb and posts in every thread about gaming laptops.

It's funny though - I just bought a new PC for D3 as well. I wonder if the world is seeing a huge spike in PC sales due to D3 coming out! haha.

If you're interested here's what I went with but it's from a custom builder so might not be good for you (this rig will DESTROY D3 by the way lol):
Model :Sager NP9170 / Clevo p170em

Hard Drive 750GB 7200RPM

Ram 8GB - DDR3 1333MHz Dual Channel

GeForce GTX 675M 2,048MB PCI-Express GDDR5 DX11

Processor Sager - 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i7-2670QM, 2.2-3.1GHz, (32nm, 6MB L3 cache) (Supports 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ Processors)

Display 17.3" FHD 16:9 "Glare Type" Super Clear Ultra Bright LED Glossy Screen (1920x1080) (SKU - S1R506)

They have a 15 inch version that's probably cheaper though over at Xoticpc.com

I am still waiting to get mine.. ordered it on the 18th but I didn't do the rush shipping so there are still 3 more days in my build window before it's expected to ship.
