Can someone please explain to me why this thing is nearly $2500CAD regular price without discreet GPU, shitty dual core and 4GB ram?

I'm confused. I can find other laptops with better specs from just as trustworthy manufacturers for under $1000.

What gives? What's so special about this "enterprise grade" machine???

It's NCIX. Their websites are buggy. Like that 12GHz Gigabyte card I saw there.

So you're saying that the regular price is wrong?

Could be. Find that laptop on other websites and see what they list it for.

12GHz Gigabyte card 

Maybe NCIX should build a new website...
