    Where at the moment is the best place to buy a G1? I know I qualify for a student discount. I've been looking at exoticpc because if I pay with cash I get the 3% off and free shipping when a student discount is applied.

    Asus does not. I was referring to XoticPC.

    There are some G1's available on newegg as well as zipzoomfly. They don't offer any discounts (and the customer service can't compare to that of the resellers listed above) however they are an alternative if the laptop is sold out in all the other places

    Yeah. I looked at all the stores mentioned and did a price comparison. Assuming the G1 is in stock, I'll be ordering from XoticPC.
