    Hello,

    im going to be buying a Sager NP2096, for gaming and playing blurays and music, i have a few questions about what i can get for my lappy

    1) can i get a remote that will turn on my laptop as well do other things such as open the CD tray and can manipulate the volume of the laptop

    2) im going to be using the laptop's HDMI out to display on my HDTV, and i get the picture on my TV and the Sound on my Stereo (Because sound follows with HDMI Right?)

    1. I've never come across a remote that can open the CD tray.
    2. Yes.

    Even it would be able to open the CD tray, you still have to get close to the CD drive to change disc.

    Exactly, you could open it (that is, eject) but you'll have to close it manually.
