    Its just unfortunate I won't be here on the day XoticPC and PNB releases their prices. Sigh. I'll just have to see them later in that week and then make my call to PCMW (you resellers...I AM rooting for the hope that your prices are lower) :)

    People have no one to blame but themselves. People know the risks of this type of thing but are so anxious to get any kind of transaction as soon as possible that group like PCMW will pull stunts like this to get early adopters.

    Lets hope for the sake of all these Sager fanboys and Resellers that their prices are competetive, cause if not everyone on these forums will know it.

    And getting out priced by such a low company as PCMW can't be good for ones reputation.

    You can rest assured that our prices will be competitive.

    Our reputations cannot be hurt by anything PCMW does, or in this case does not do, except to the extent that a guy like Matthew Thomas O'Byrne can negatively affect the industry's reputation.

    greyreap, you need to wake up and see the writing on the wall. This guy crashed and burned in Texas leaving many people without warranties and who knows what else, then moved to California without learning anything about integrity and honest business practices and continues to be dishonest which does fool some people who simply don't know the facts.

    Fortunately most of the people, when given the information that he has been hiding, are wise enough not to be among those that are fooled.

    I'm pretty excited to see those prices. And it's not because I want to work out a deal with PCMW and get a lower price after seeing your prices, it's because I honestly don't think that my deal with PCMW can be beat.

    What's sad is that you come on here acting like a smartass and insulting people who have plenty of reasons to purchase from PCMW. This is a notebook forum, learn to take other people's opinions and tolerate them rather than coming here and acting superior by trying to make those that don't agree with your genius thoughts look stupid.

    And that's fine, I can understand why you may feel that way but there are better ways in getting that across to people than some of your statements in your previous posts.
