for sale: sager np8890 3ghz/1gig/80gb raid etc. exc cond.

Any gamers or graphics guys want a totally badass laptop? I’m selling my laptop-zilla ‘cause the company is going to buy me a new machine and I don’t need two..

I bought this laptop to use as a mobile graphics workstation and now my company is buying me a laptop. It’s made by sager and the model is the 8890. Sager and Alienware use the same OEM, Clevo, to build their machines, the only difference is in the case. This laptop is comparable to the Alienware Area 51…

It has a full sized keyboard with a 10 key pad, the mp3 player and 6in1 card reader dock into the side of the laptop so you don't need any cables to transfer files, very cool....

Here's the specs...

16" SXGA TFT Active Matrix w/ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 Pro w/128MB DDR,
3GHz Hyper-Threading Intel Pentium® 4 Processor w/512k L2 Cache - 800MHz System Bus Speed,
Built-in TV Tuner w/Remote (NTSC),
40.0GB Ultra ATA/100 Hard Drive at 4,200 RPM,
Secondary 40GB ULTRA ATA/100 HDD w/Bracket,
RAID 0 enabled, (looks like a single 80GB drive with crazy fast access time)
1,024MB (2 SODIMMS) PC3200 DDR400 Memory,
Detachable MP3 Player w/0MB SD Memory,
Detachable 6 in 1 card reader for memory stick, sd, mmc, cf, microdrive etc..
Combo 8X DVD/24x10x24 CD-RW w/Softwares,
Built-in 3.5" 1.44MB Floppy Disk Drive,
Built-in IEEE 1394 (Firewire),
Built-in 56k V.90 Modem,
Built-in 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet w/RJ-45 Jack,
Built-in 802.11b Wireless LAN,
Smart Li-ion Battery,
Windows XP Professional,
3-CD Bundled software package, unregistered - $389 Value,
Full Range Auto Switching AC Adapter,
Standard Carrying Case
CONDITION:

Cosmetics: on a scale of 1-10 cosmetically I'd give it a 9 and only because it has very minor signs of wear, no gouges or scratches, and never, ever, been dropped.

Functionality: 10 out of 10. Not a single dead pixel on the screen and this is probabaly the nicest 16" LCD available in the world, far better than theone I had on a previous 16" sony vaio laptop. 3.0 GHz hyper threading processor and 1GB of memory absolutely scream...

feel free to email me directly with questions...

Hmmm. I went through the configurator and came up with 2700 and change...

Okay then, $2300 is the lowest I'll go...

The other thing you have to remember is you can't configure this particular model. The SXGA screen just is not available (spares are but not new ones). So on that basis and given potential demand for this particular model (the disks are only low end but could be replaced) the price is a reflection of that market sentiment.

heh - he's been emailed. i wonder if he'll sell to me or if its still there. i still have to worry about getting it across the border. *cringe* the duty fees on this would be astronomical.
