    At PowerNotebooks.com we do not offer discounts below our already heavily discounted website pricing. We prefer to offer the same low pricing to everyone, everyday.

    Yes, they will all be about the same price.

    However as had been said many times before in this forum it is better to buy from a reseller because you will get better service and support (we offer REAL 24/7 DOMESTIC tech support...while Sager only offers West Coast business hours support and others offer a cell phone at their bedside)

    Before you buy I would suggest calling the sales office for all three, and stop by www.resellerratings.com to look them all up and compare not only their rating scores...but the number of ratings over the years for each.

    Then you will be able to make an better informed decision as opposed to deciding on price alone.

    You actually edited your post to add "shamless" :nah: ...or did you mean shameless?

    Either way we appreciate both. As you can see from our Rep points here, and at ResellerRatings we are indeed shamless...now shameless could be a different story. However we are well known around here to be totally shameless as well :wink:

    Stare at Paladin44's Knight Graphic for about 30 seconds..

    Ask yourself, is the Knight staring back? Does it somehow keep an "eye" on the customer to help provide the best service and value? How much of a beating is the competition receiving to get those "victory notches" in the sword's blade?

    Now I dare you to tell me with a straight face that PowerNotebook is not the better value! ;)


    EDIT: Weird sense of humor tonight.. I need sleep :p
    The knight keeps his "eye" on the target... being YOU the consumer!
    ok... thats enough.. I'm going to bed..
