    Start PM-ing the resellers about discounts.
    Start browsing their sites.
    Start calculating stuff

    The only tangible differences I have found is in the options for the configurations and the minor extras some throw in like a free game or mouse. Configuration wise some make the systems highly configurable (bare bones) while others only will sell you everything including the kitchen sink installed.

    Your mileage may vary so like the last poster said, start doing your research and read the reviews here (with a grain of salt).

    Good Luck

    In my experience, you want to either buy from mythologic or xoticpc. Just my 2c.

    Any reason behind this, I am thinking of buying from PowerNotebooks reason being they have one of the highest ratings on resellerratings.com

    just some advice, DONT GO WITH THE CHEAPEST COMPANY. I learned that the hard way when i purchased from a third rate computer company 5 years ago. Go with a reseller that posts here often, and seems like they value their customers. I went with mythlogic and couldnt be happier. I recieved the same support today as i did when i purchased the $2500 beast. I will be a customer for life or until they screw me over, or go out of business; but with a customer support team as good as theirs i doubt those will happen.
