    I bought NP8130 from Sager recently, and in Windows 7 -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Information, the System Model is shown as P150HMx instead of P151HM1. P151HM1 is stated as NP8130 on Sager's sales website.

    Does anyone have the same issue? Or just me that given a wrong or faked model by Sager. By the way, the System Name does show NP8130.

    Thank you in advance!

    Believe it or not, that's by design. The P151HM1 is not a unique model- it's actually the same chipset (HM65 board) used in the P150HM. The models only differ in exterior finish, power supply size, and (at one point) stock screens. Because they use the same board/chipset, the P151HM1 should show up as P150HM by default :)


    By the way, the naming conventions are:

    P151HM1 = 8130
    P150HM = 8150

    The P151HM1/P150HM are the original model names given by Clevo. The other names are those given by Sager on import to the US. Clevo resellers tend to sell them under the original model number.

    yeah don't get too excited, the p151hm1 is just another p150hm but with a fixed graph card in general
