    Hello just wondering if anyone has a CX that would like to share his thoughts on it. It seems to be a rebadged asus c90s but did P1 make any improvements?

    Yes P1 does do a couple of hardware mods as well as some software improvements for better performance; installing low density graphite hd mods to the bottom of the hard drives on those particular machines to help pull heat downward to combat the heat that plagues those units in the left palm rest, since heat naturally rises, plus its low density design provides a nice shock absorber for the drives. We are also seeing 200+ more points on a standard CX90 on 3DMark06 benchmarks than machines with over 200MHz more CPU speed since are team uses optimized NVIDIA drivers instead of the standard ones as well as only the best hardware for them, such as HGST 7K200 drives only. P1 is also bundling Enterprise Edition Inspice trace, recovery & data protection on those.
