    I don't get it, I thought the 570ru was exclusive to clevo and sager.

    Clevo is the actual manufacturer/ODM. There are a handful of systems integrators in North America that work direct with them.

    ya its in a post somewhere

    but only sager/prostar alienware and eurocom buy from clevo and everyone else has to buy from them.

    And alienware doesnt sell them so that makes it one list shorter.

    The C90S/CX with the 8700GT looks to be a really powerful combination. At under 7lbs, it will be easily the most portable gaming powerhouse out there.
