Get the B&H Payboo Card [bhphotovideo.com] and it will be tax-free… $1599 and you get 32 GB of RAM and it's advertised as a 1 TB SSD, but mine came with two 1 TB SSD's. It also comes with windows 11 Professional instead of Home. So basically, if you pay with the Payboo card, you get 16GB more RAM, Windows 11 Pro and, if you're lucky like I was, two 1 TB drives, for around $100 more.
That said, I paid the same amount 8 months ago for half the RAM. The price should be coming down on these, especially since we've got new stuff around the corner.

I snagged one too, but it never shipped and I called them and they said it was on back order. Ended up getting one from B&H [bhphotovideo.com].

If you can avoid buying the 32GB factory RAM, you're better off upgrading it yourself and using dual rank memory instead of the stuff Lenovo uses. You'll notice 5-10% better CPU performance because Ryzen CPUs are very memory-sensitive.
Price aside, this is a very nice machine. The screen and build quality are the stars of the show. The main issues are the use of single-rank memory and the possibility that you'll get a card with Micron GDDR6 as opposed to Samsung (mainly an issue with ETH mining)
