    I'm looking for a W860CU retailer makes their laptops with lights (like the NP9850), as well as keyboard backlights.

    You aren't going to find any retailers like that.

    Still you aren't going to get that as they only re-brand these laptops from Clevo. If Clevo doesn't give it as an option (which they don't), then Sager or any other reseller will not give that as an option.

    That's what I was thinking. :) I don't mind having a backlit keyboard but anything else will kill the looks of this laptop.

    I don't want an alienware, I'm looking for something along the lines of the Sager 9850, cool, but sensable. :D

    yea the 9850 is my fav. laptop so far, too bad its soooo big. actually scratch that, G51, W860CU, M15x + an AWESOME desktop is my fav. combo. but for someone who cant get a desktop, the 9850 is pretty dam good.

    Why get three laptops that esentially do the same job? The combo of any of those three plus a desktop would do most, with maybe a netbook too. So, money to burn eh? :rolleyes:

    You'd think so but the punctuation says otherwise.
