    I need to purchase a laptop in person on a finance plan before Saturday because I'm heading off to campus...

    I need to know of any vendors that carry the Asus M50, Canada Computers has them, I just need to know of anymore...

    Thanks.

    I can say that they are reasonably reputable from experience. But don't expect a refund/exchange policy that you can use.

    The only other thing I would consider is ordering from out of province to save on the PST which is not insignificant.

    Well, I'm going to have to finance something from dell :)mad: ), or HP ( :eek: ) because no Asus resellers offer financing. That is understandable though, they are not as large.... :)

    Is waiting and saving not an option? If there is no current need for a lappy then I advise you to save up and buy what you want; instead of filling the void of your wants with a less than satisfactory substitute....my two cents but again I am not you.

    they are around leslie and sheppard. I find that the prices are fairly cheap and that if you negotiate with them you can get a good deal. I got 50 bucks off. Just make sure you tell them how you'll pay. IE credit, debit, cash
