    Saying frankly, I'm ready to go with 8662, but the screen makes a bit ... mmm... concerned.

    I'm quiet curious if someone see both laptops and can compare the screen quality. Saying frankly, I'm ready to go with 8662, but the screen makes a bit ... mmm...

    my very last reason to buy 5797 rather 8662 gone. Thanks, bro ;)

    Philosophically speaking, it's a strange decision to sell, I believe, the best platform in the world with such terrible screens... And i'm not talking about LED screen (nice dreams)...

    Yes, the screens are a bit dim, but they are very good quality.

    OK, let's see.

    again saying frankly, "good screen" in my terms is non-FN one, but no way I can hope to see them on laptops ... So, if Sager's screen will be not worse than major brands ones that should fine for me.
