Laptop build advice please?

Im about to buy a new laptop and Ive decided to build one direct from HP. I dont know too much about hardware so I just want some opinions on how I did with the build. Im not going to be gaming with this laptop. Im mostly going to be using it for working on my sites. Also I will be listening to music and watching TV show and movies. Anyway here are the specs and price.

HP Pavilion dv6t Select Edition customizable Notebook PC

Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-460M Dual Core Processor (2.53 GHz, 3MB L3 Cache) with Turbo Boost up to 2.8GHz
Intel(R) HD Graphics [HDMI, VGA] - For Dual Core Processors
FREE Upgrade to 6GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
640GB 7200RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery (standard) - Up to 5.25 hours of battery life +++
15.6" diagonal High Definition LED HP Brightview Widescreen Display (1366x768)
No TouchScreen (includes HP TrueVision Webcam)
LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support
Intel Wireless-N Card
Backlit Keyboard with HP SimplePass Fingerprint Reader
HP Home & Home Office Store in-box envelope

The total price including tax and shipping AND if I get the rebate will be $715.99

If I dont get the rebate then the total price would be $865.99

So what do you guys think? Sorry if this is a long post.
