    until they are officialy released by clevo i wouldnt wait in for the delivery truck on wednesday.
    if you do get one then it is a pre release model that is not for resail and wont have the most up to date bios and you are being ripped off with an under par test machine.

    yes theve been testing the pre production model like kobalt had back in april.

    something fishy going on if they say they have the full production model but they have not been released from clevo yet.

    so who are you buying from nexuscom?

    Serious dealers will not sell you pre-production equipment. Stop worrying.
    It's no big secret that some parts of the world are quicker to get new Clevo's than others - Germany seems to be very fast in getting them, for example.

    I've always preferred a max of 15.4". but suddenly I'm in love with the idea of having a giant 18" machine in front of me. Good thing I can't afford one.


    Protip: nexuscom, the model in your sig should read M980NU, not NP9850.

    It's because it's EUROCOM's name.

    All is good.
