    I know they use Clevo and Uniwill...i have a feeling this would have been a new uniwill/ecs we haven't seen yet...

    It looks pretty neat though...sort of like the Compal IFL90, but quite a bit better.

    The Pegasus series has been Uniwill, but as you can see the product looks quite a bit different, so I don't know..

    I'm pretty sure It's made by clevo, but its sold by the British notebook distributor Rock.

    Hi,

    Yes, if the configuration comes to £920 you will only have to pay us an extra £120. The 8600GT uses GDDR3.

    If your notebook ever needs a warranty repair you will be responsible covering all the carriages costs for sending it back.

    Please don't hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions at all?
    Best Regards,
