    Hi guys!

    today my notebook arrived and couldnt be happier! :)
    i set the system up and it works without any flaws!
    last night i bought FarCry and BF2 and they work amazing!

    im very satisfied with my lappie! and that is not the last thing.

    because..... wow ISTNC are the best!....

    because...
    I ordered my lappie with a DVD/CDRW because DVD+-RW was 60 dollars more. now i dont know why... but ISTNC put a DVD+-RW drive inside my computer free of charge with a small note saying that it was a gift for being a first time buyer... im not sure if they do this to other people but they did to me!

    wow!

    that company ROCKS! i would buy from them AGAIN and AGAINN!!!!

    my next lappie (after 3 years) is gonna come from ISTNC!!!!

    a free dvd writer....wow...no one is THAT nice.....except ISTNC


    WOW..


    now.....

    a thank you to all you NBR members who helped me in my purchase..
    and a special thanks to:

    Chazman-------------Inspired my intrest for better laptop and graphics.. easily the best member NBR has to offer (in my opinion)

    Flanken-------------he has this notebook from the same reseller. it was mostly his review of the Quanta that inspired me to buy. and he has been very helpful....thanks Flanken

    and all other members (whos names i cant remember) that halped me in some way to buying this lappie. i would have never have done it without you guys!


    thank you.


    PS: my dad is relly jealous!!!

    Amazing customer serivce! That was very thoughtful of them to give you a free upgrade to a DVD+/-RW drive - be sure to write them a review on www.resellerratings.com. That's why I like getting my notebooks from non-mainstream compaines - the personal attention is a great factor, plus you have a much better ownership experience in my opinion.

    Thanks for the compliment. :) Great to see that you're more than satisfied and recieved what you wanted. Flanken as you said, others, all played a big part in your decision as well.

    Cheers,,
    Chaz

    Thanks for the compliment! Sounds like you got a spectacular deal with your system; ISTNC really does care for its customers. I ordered mine with the Intel 2915 wireless card, and Rick threw in some Arctic Silver 5 for me for free after I asked for it later.

    Oh, and your 3dmark05 score is remarkably good for a KN1; mine usually gets around ~2500 or so. All in all, I think you got a really good deal.

    I think I need to go and pick up Far Cry after finals are over.

    I have no idea. Definitely a good thing, though! You've got a keeper.
