    Wanting to buy a "G73JW-XA1" from Amazon but after reading some of the post on the Asus Laptop forum is seems that you are having problems with the G73JW-A1. Are these chronic problems with this machine? I love what i am seeing in this machine but not near as computer smart as some of you people appear to be and these problems i would not know how to work through. What about your support are they not supposed to take care of these things as long they are under warranty? I have read where "sandy bridge" will be included in some of the models in January and was wondering how much more cost will be added for sandy bridge
    thanks

    Sandybridge should be coming in at the same price points. Think of it as a refresh.

    Same price point as the original i7s came in at - not the sale prices they're currently at...

    or total sheer incompetence as alienware have shown with M11x or Asus have done with G73... all i know is the G73's main issue is screens but seems to be solved.. wait for new sandy bridge model.. should be better, newer and less problems :D
