So far I'm very impressed with the company, I wasn't expecting to have my emails answered in under an hour or have one person to deal with. If this laptop is as good as the customer service I've had so far, I'm going to love this laptop.

I've been reading these forums for the past week or two and I want to say thanks for all the great information.

 

Good to hear! enjoy it!

 

you could have got an xps m1530 for the same price as you sager but with a more powerful gpu (8600mgt with 256mg GDDR3 memory) and better components.. my advice would be to cancel the order and order a dell xps m1530

 

don't do that

 

That looks like an excellent mobile machine for your needs. Don't listen to the Dell pusher, as I'm sure you will be 100% satisfied with your Sager just like the rest of us happy Sager owners. Enjoy!

 

yea... or dont do that
go to the dell forums and see all the complaints about XPS and stuff and you'll be even more sure of your decision.

welcome to the world of sager.

 

Congrats on the purchase, the 2092 is a solid built laptop and powerful enough for even medium gaming.

 

No no get the sager xps stil has some quirks!

 

Yup, and one of the premium accessories that comes with the M1530 is a Pandora's Box worth of headaches and hassles. It's worth consideration, but make sure you read carefully through the Dell/XPS forums before you cancel your 2092 order and place an order for the M1530.

 

The XPS is more expensive with the same setup.

And no 64bit OS to choose from only 32 bit.

 

Don't just push your favorite products on the man when he just bought something else. Also...Dell...No thanks. Looks like a great machine, El_Chorizo, and for a great price for that setup. Enjoy it!

 

and buy lots of tylenol and maybe an eee pc backup so you can get tech support through other than dell.

 

Congrats on the Sager purchase

 

That's exactly what I found out when I looked at Dell. I'm not going to cancel the order, I just wish I didn't have to wait until July 1st to get it!

I'm just a tad excited!

 

since when is the gpu more powerful? last time anybody checked the "memory" is faster.

 

Perhaps the XPS has the ddr3 8600, for what it's worth.

 

Sager = DDR2
XPS = DDR3

Not sure what the benefits are.

 

Dude, thats only a couple of days away. Some of us have to wait longer for our new systems.

 

If you are going to game often, get the XPS or Thinkpad.

However, the Sager will have better service for sure than both.

I would stick with the 2092 if you are not doing intense gaming.

 

Can I ask why those 2 are better? I've heard that a couple times here, but don't understand why they are better.

Thanks.

 

DD3 memory is faster so the card can go something like 10-20 faster depending if you overclock etc... Dont worry you'll game just fine. You have to remember to many people that anything not maxed at 60fps = unplayable. You may not be able to play everything at max rez but you'll do just fine.

 

Yeah, I will use it for casual gaming only, mainly Lord of the Rings Online. I've got a home-built quad core beast of a machine for my heavy gaming.

Thanks for all the comments!
