    Was wondering if anyone knew of when the G53SX's would be coming in and what changes are expected.

    Anyone know?

    It's just available for pre-order, not out per se.
    At least it is with xoticpc.com

    I'm asking more because it's listed as .4 pounds heavier than the G53SW on xoticpc.com and changing from a 460 -> 560 shouldn't be the only cause of .4lb.

    Regarding when it will be out:
    I asked the place where I ordered mine and they said they're most likely getting the laptop late next week (July 28th-ish?)
    I live in Finland so might be different for you guise, but I thought this would be worthwhile posting since no-one knows nothing about the release lol.
