Hi Guys,
I been watching the reviews and the excitement of everyone that brought the IFL90/2090. I want to buy one too. But I am not sure which website to buy from for the cheapest price and good quality.
Can you tell me where you order it from? and tell me why? Also do the website accept check? Money order?
I need to install XP pro in my laptop for college (my college said they don't support vista in networking!!). Later I will change it to vista (maybe) so that I can use the Intel Turbo Memory. I am not sure if Intel Turbo Memory will give me an error if using window XP is installed. Can someone give me some info?

I bought mine from Powernotebooks.com, Donald helped me out with a lot of questions I had over e-mail very quickly and responsively, they're very nice folks over there.
I'm sure XoticPC is the same with customer service as well, so us Sager guys are in luck with having such excellent and reputable resellers. -
I'd go with powernotebooks.com if you're in the US. tho I hear XoticPC has good offers too and quality as well, so why not give both a bell and see what rocks your boat.
I had contact with sagernotebook themselves and it was not a pleasant one. Also their prices are higher than the aformentioned resellers. But give them a bell yourself perhaphs they'd be more suave with you. -

I went with Powernotebooks.com via Ron. He also emails back very quickly. Now it's all about sitting here and waiting...

For some reason Powernotebooks.com and XoticPC have EXACTLY the same price when I finish customizing it lol (before discount,shipping and tax). The only different is the discount thing. I don't know what is wire transfer. $30 shipping from Powernotebooks and I don't know what is the shipping for XoticPC.
My customized one (tell me what you think):

By the way I live in the US. -
A wire transfer is your bank sending money directly to their bank. I've done it once several years ago. It required me to go to the bank and fill out some paperwork and there was a serious fee to perform the transfer. Fees vary a lot I think from bank to bank and it is possible in this day and age that the process is easier than it was when I did it but check with your bank.
Edit: I found out it is $10 for a wire at my credit union. Not too bad. -
i ordered from xotic because it ended up being slightly less expensive than powernotebooks. the customer service has been very good.
-
I found out it was free for me with paypal e-check -.-
-
I ordered my IFL90 from xotic. They have amazing customer service equal to powernotebooks.
Plus, it was a bit cheaper and powernotebooks doesn't accept paypal echeck for the discount which was an automatic dealbreaker for me. -
I've ordered from powernotebooks.com and they give you specials if you call in.

ordered from powernotebooks

xoticpc, used paypal e-check. Took 3 business days to clear.
-
I ordered from Powernotebooks. Donald was really nice to deal with and we talked about the IFL90 for 15 minutes on the phone.
I personally think Donald from Powernotebooks and Justin from XoticPC are both great resellers and it was really hard choosing one over the other.

oh yea so answering the question, i ordered from xotic.
Where did you order your IFL90/2090?
