    Has a higher cpu speed but no fingerprint or webcam and one less usb port i think? also whats the clock speed on the graphics card.
    and it will probably come with bloatware :/

    The features says it has a dvd-rom/cd-rw which will not burn dvds but the specifications says it will burn dvds. I'd get that clarified.

    Actually it looks like it does have a fingerprint reader and a webcam. If you enlarge the image you can see them both, the fingerprint reader is below the trackpad.

    I'd say it looks like a good competitor to the Sager.

    Pc's sold at Circuit City aren't configureable like Sagers are. Velocity Micro uses Clevo computers for the ones you can order from them. I don't think the model is a Clevo.

    This system looks like it is a Asus C90S.
