Thanks... the only thing I was a little concerned about was the screen but I guess the difference between a better one isnt that big of a deal... or is it? I dont really have much experience with laptops and havent really ever compared any in person. Is this type of screen really crappy?

It's fine imo. Personally I like 15" screens better than 17" if that's what you're worried about. More battery life, smaller/lighter laptop.
I'd go about ~1700 in terms of price

1500 sounds good

Wouldn't buy it at all. Price irrelevant.
