    Hello all,

    Former Alienware m17x R1 and R2 owner here (never again),

    About to pull the trigger on an 8130, bumping the CPU up to 27xx, 500gb hybrid drive, and 3 year warranty.

    The matte screen was the biggest factor, and the nice price (Dell/AW is so much more for less of a machine, they can kiss my a....)

    Thinking of buying from ReflexNotebook (I'm in Canada)... can anyone shed some light on the "Reflexnotebook Hassle free warranty" for an extra ~$70 some dollars.

    Can any current 8130 users post some real life pictures, and or a mini-review? I can't seem to find much for either, I'd like to see what this thing looks like in real life, as opposed to the press shots on various websites.

    Any bag recommendations (not backpacks) would be much appreciated!

    Thanks very much!

    Hi Mikeyy00,

    Concerning our hassle free warranty option, this should shed some light.

    If you buy our no hassle warranty we handle all serviceable parts here at our office. If we need to send the laptop back to the manufacturer we will cover shipping charges and deal with Sager for you. This is only valid for the duration of your Sager warranty. It does not extend your warranty.

    Hope that helps.

    As far as the pics go we don't have an 8130 in store so the website pics is all we can offer at the moment.

    Edit: concerning the laptop case, Targus has great products. It would be a pleasure to help you out on selecting the proper one for you, PM me for more details if you wish.
