    Hi,

    I'm looking into a midrange 6.0lbs notebook with good graphics processor. I read some good reviews about velocity micro. Can anyone help me out with addtioanl information about the company and/or about the NoteMagix™ B50 Ultra, like is it a viable option in this category.

    Thanks

    switcher: About nine months ago, I bought a VM desktop. It arrived with several problems which left the machine non-functional. I was angry and, of course, very disappointed. However, the VM folks made good on all issues (disgusted, I gave the rig to my son, much to his delight!). After a couple of attempts, all issues were resolved and the machine has been flawless since roughly July of last year.

    VM has my recommendation despite our initial rough start. Additonally, FYI, I believe all VM's service calls are now handled in-house. We haven't had any further issues which required help. [ :)]

    I had the exact same problems as the previous poster. I had it a short time and ran into to problems one in which they had to take it back to the shop for a few weeks but after the initail problems it has been the best computer I have ever had. The computer is great and I would definitly recomend it.
