    To be honest it was such a sweet deal i dident notice...a couple of main factors for me were .a system that i can beat mandrake with and a quality customer service, and a bad custom build.....they work amazing deals all the time ,,,,,give them a phone call you will see what i mean...its sweet




    i have never had a bsod...ever even from the build on up ...everything was and is perfect....

    Do you have it yet?
    I went to PowerNotbooks and configured one with those specs and it was over 3 grand! Ouch!
    Did you really get it just to crush Mandrakes score?
    That would truly be sick.lol
    I would love to see what scores you get.

    Congrats on the little one too!
    Mandrake is a very cool dude but I think it's time for you to overtake him in 3DMARK06, after all no one remains king forever.
    I'm definitely staying tuned in and look forward to the pics, this should be great.

    LOL @ the hiding big charges from the wife. If she's computer illiterate you can probably get away with telling her it's a cheap netbook.
