My CX6 arrived yesterday!
Haven't had a lot of time on it yet but so far I love it. It is almost as fast as my Sager 5720 but it is a lot lighter and easier to pack around. My wife loaded Sims2 Nightlife on it and played it a few hours. It runs faster than her Dell XPS notebook. Hopefully she will let me use my new notebook again.
It was well packed and comes with a nice case. I have a new Swiss Army backpack case I will be using for it however because it will work out better getting around the airport when I travel. It also has a small case that holds the software and documents, a very nice touch. The CX6 is very well made and has a nice feel to the keyboard. Not to soft or to firm. The sound system is awesome.
The screen is well lite and has an anti-glare finish. The images are very sharp on the screen and I can't see how anyone could ask for more. I ordered it on Feb. 2nd and it was first scheduled to ship on Feb. 16th. I actually shipped on Feb. 21st. A little slow but not big problem. Hypersonic's staff was very friendly and helpful with both the ordering process and updating me on my order status when I called. They e-mail me when the order shipped and included the tracking number. I wish their site gave a little more information about what is going on with the order between order acceptance and shipping. I wish they offered custom paint for the CX6. Below are the specs and benchmarks .
