    Hey, I am looking for a reliable and some-what cheap budget site to buy the sager 8170. I was looking into lpc-digital and wondering if anyone has any experience from there. Same with mythlogiccorp. Thanks for the info guys.

    For the most part the resellers have the same prices when all the parts, service, and shipping is factored in. It's really just a matter of preference in my opinion. I went around a few sellers and asked them all the same questions.
    What did I get? All had timely responses to all my questions, gave reasons for those answers, and even tried to help with my shipping constraints.
    I chose xoticpc because I liked their website. Something about black/red that I like. As you can see from that logic, nothing really profound there :D

    Look at MALIBAL, as the poster above me said, their pretty much all alike. I chose them mainly because I want to say I own a MALIBAL. Lol. Has a nice ring to it :p oh and their very aggressive with their pricing, if you see it cheaper anywhere else be sure to tell them and they will do their best to give you a discount. But that can be said for all the resellers including xotic pc.

    Prices are pretty much the same all across the board. I suggest looking into the difference between a Sager branded notebook and a Clevo reseller. The differences are small but are there. And Red and Black rock!
