    Try not to double post (even though this one has a Poll)

    The poll is NOT really needed.

    They are both highly reputable and highly recommended.

    Their prices should also be competitive as well.

    You should not have a problem with either of them. Their service/support are both legendary and excellent.

    The main thing that XoticPC's got over Powernotebooks is that they ship outside the U.S. and they have custom paint jobs if you want it.

    i ordered from Xotic, but both of these resellers are highly reputable so you can't go wrong with either.

    As has been said, both sellers have reps on the forum, and they both have awesome service! I ordered my 5790 from XoticPC, as Justin was great in answering my questions.

    I went with XoticPC and have not been let down. On the other hand I haven't heard anything bad about Powernotebooks either.

    Both are great companies. You should give both of them a call and talk to them. That is the best way to see what type of people they are.

    I went with Powernotebooks because Donald (paladin44) responded to my forum posts faster, and because... Well...

    It was kinda a mental coin flip, actually...

    I havent seen a bad word about either of them anywhere. And I spent DAYS researching Powernotebooks- resellerratings, BBB, google searches, newspapers... Everything I could think of. They're spotless.

    As noted both are great companies and this kind of thread is likely to cause an argument so I'm going to peacefully close it.
