    After MANY agonizing weeks of research, hair pulling, and down right beating my head against the desk, I placed my order for a Sager 8130 with XOTICPC.
    A big Thank You to J.P for his patience in answering my questions and upgrade suggestions. Now the wait begins..........

    Congrats on your purchase! I wish I picked one up last week too, but only decided now to buy a new laptop.

    Sneakin,

    What made you decide to go with the Sager? I have been looking as well and made an order for an ASUS G53 for the cyber monday sale, only to find out they've sold out. Now I'm considering the 8130 but I'm having a hard time finding current information. Everything seems to be dated for early 2011 and not recent.

    Believe me, I READ A LOT of post on this site along with reviews posted on youtube, and whatever else I could find them online. It got to the point where I was so overwhelmed with all the available laptop choices, video cards, warranties, (and my available bank account), that I had to look at what seemed to me to be the most widely accepted laptop for gamers. I got the sense fairly quickly that the P150 platform was high up on the list. Now it was just a matter of talking to dealers (there are many helpful ones here :D ) and finding who had the best cyber Monday deal. Ohhh the agony of waiting for the UPS truck to arrive.

    congrats on your purchase, I just got my 8170 via UPS today. These forums are very informative, thanks to all who post. Now if only my office software, adobe creative suites and other items will arrive from other places
