    Hey guys I am searching for around a 13" laptop for college and gaming, and if Sager had made a 13" laptop that would've been perfect.

    I think the NP9000 series would be to big to bring to class, so I think I am going to have to go with the NP6110.

    What do you guys think?

    I think it's perfect for class, and if your going to game then maybe you might want to get a 24" monitor for home/dorm.
    Monitor is not a must but some don't want to play on a 11" If they don't have too. That was my plan until I changed my mind and went for the np9150

    Yeah, I would get a NP9150, but I am taking my desktop to college too.

    The NP9150 is a little large, sure, but it's not ginormous. If you keep your components light (SSD HD, no optical drive) it is not terribly heavy. These are the trade offs you have to deal with if you want a gaming powerhouse. For me, it's definitely worth it.

    I am wondering this myself. GTX 660m is the perfect GPU for such a model along with backlit keyboard, 8-cell battery, 1600x900 matte display, $1200 would be PERFECT. Oh and prefer manual switchable graphics please. :)

    Same boat as you. I wanted a 13inch laptop from Clevo but couldn't wait on uncertainty. Went with the 11.6 incher and got to say, it's damn good. Only problem is the gargantuan PSU and the need to find a good cooler hehe.

    I like the W110ER. Perfect for school I think. My friend has the P151EM and he likes that model too. I don't think you can go wrong either way, honestly. The P15xM is a tad too large for my taste to be dragging around all day.

    Give it time.

    You 13" lovers should see something soon, unless Clevo decides to bail on us
