    14,1''? The model number seems to indicate it's based on one of the Compal IFL90 notebooks... is this one based on the IFT00?

    you work on zepto sweden, yes?

    Its not available on the swedish website yet.

    Also I was told the 6224w and 6324w shouldnt differ in price and hardware options, but they do. Would you look into that? Or do I have to send an email or call you to sort that out if I decide to order?

    3414W is the Compal IFT00 barebone.

    Is it any better (or worse) than the 6*24s in terms of build quality?

    Yes, you are right, it's based on the Compal IFT.

    Yes, I work for Zepto Sweden, but I'm a techinican and has nothing to do with the site.
    The guy responsible for the site is vacation, that's why the swedish site is not 100% updated. I will sure tell him aboute the 6x24 prices when he gets back.

    Any information on size/weight of this model? Especially compared to the 6224w.

    I like that Zepto has filled all GPU segments for 14'1'' now, very well done!

    Do you know when he is getting back from vacation? I was planning to order the 6324W this week which, for no apparant reason, is more expensive on the Swedish website.

    I'm not sure, but i think he has 3 weeks more. But there's probably someone else that could fix the price (if it is suposed to be fixed, could be some special offer on the 6224W that makes it cheeper). In other case you could just call in to place your order to be sure that you get the right price.

    Perhaps someone could fire the ones responsible for the websites and hire new staff to do the job? It's not very professional to update the website before everything is ready. This goes especially for the swedish site. For example, the 3414W is visible on the UK website, but without much info. It's named on the international site, but without photos.

    I have to agree with that, there seem to be many and huge errors every time the site gets updated and if they fix it, it takes a lot of time. I can only speak for the swedish site but it does feel like it would be better if the whole web order option got taken away because when prices and hardware options arent correct you are fooled into paying too much (or maybe too little and they will require you to pay more cause thats the price its supposed to be but they cant keep their site in order...) and its a pain to have to confirm all prices by contacting support each time. It would be better to just order by phone in the first place.

    We are doing everything we can to keep the websites up to date. We do not have any dedicated people that works only with the site, it's regular salesguys that put up new stuff.
    Because of the massive orderwave that we have at the moment all salesguys are working the hardest they can, but there is still some things that takes a bit more time to fix than we have wanted.
