i would assume it be the current model at the time, there is no model number and wouldn't think Chrisco is that dodgy
If you check out the laptop page, it lists the machine's precise specs:
Features Intel® Core™ i7 processor, 15.6" HD LED LCD screen, NVIDIA® GeForce® 940MX 2GB, 8GB memory, 1TB HDD, DVD-super multi DL drive and Windows 10 Home.
So I would assume that's what you're getting.

Regular Chrisco is bad enough; using them for things like electronics and games is something truly next level. These will depreciate in value at a pretty rapid rate, and you're paying more than full price for something that will be close to, or already be, superseded by the newer model.

It's even more ridiculous with games. I was looking at their 6-pack bundle of PS4 games, which averages out to $95 per game. Four of the games are already released, and they have all been available much cheaper already; I've seen CoD as low as $59, GTS as low as $29 during the black Friday sales a few weeks back, Battlefront II for $39, and Wolfenstein II for $39.

These are sales prices, sure, but video games go on sale all the time. There will be multiple opportunities within the span of 45 weeks to pick up all the bundled games for far less than $95.

This is almost as bad as when I walk into EB games and see some teenager selling some oblivious mother an Xbox console for $100 more than what she would pay if she bothered to walk down the street to JB or Big W.

My laptop is about to die, so I'm in the market. Would be interested to see what $1,000 will get me relative to one year ago, simply based on non-sale prices at JB Hifi.

Can not even comprehend spending $2,000 on what was $1,000 a year ago when what was $1,000 a year ago was probably $7-800 11 months ago.
