Does anybody have experience with this company? I like the specs they offer, and the design seems pretty decent. So, can anyone tell me about how the company's service is? Is there any reason for me to know the company will even be around in a few years to honor a multi-year service contract? Also, these bodies look very similar to others I've seen (ie Sager...) so I'm wondering if they use the same, are there any stores where I could see one of these in person?

Basically, can anyone recommend these systems or not?

Thanks for any info!

I too have been looking into Hypersonic. I've read good things on ResellerRatings.com, but only 88 reviews there so not that many. As for the bodies, they're the same as the Sager, and Velocity Micro, and many others. Many (if not all) of the parts are similar as well.

My big concern is yours: How's their service? Think they'll be around to honor it? Etc.?

I've also been reading a lot about how long it takes to get one. The system I'm looking at doesn't have any custom paint job, and I don't plan on changing my mind about the parts, and I'd choose Overnight Air shipping. I want to have the laptop to use before school (August 25). Any suggestions to have that be possible?
