[/IMG]I first ordered a Dell 9100 about a month ago with all the goodies and waited for two weeks before cancelling my order and opting for a Sager 8970. The reason for the cancellation was the shipping date which was ridiculously far from what I expected. Last week, on Monday, I placed the Order for the Sager 8970 (3.4 GHZ 1.0 Megs RAM) and on friday of that same week I received it.
I never owned a laptop before and I never thought a laptop will outperform my desktop even with more CPU frequency. I basically spend my time designing CAD models using Pro/Engineer. Such programs requires a lot of computing power along with some serious amount of RAM. After receiving the Sager 8970 and installing Pro/Engineer I never went back to my desktop again. the one most important aspect of the laptop that I liked the most is the size of the screen and its quality of course. The second most impressive thing was the power and the speed at which the CAD models were generated, hands down, my desktop (2.53 GHZ, 1.5 DDRAM) was blown away.
Of course all the other goodies the laptop comes with from card reader to subwoofer and so on are good but not primordial for what I do.
I needed a reliable strong built powerful laptop and the SAGER 8970 more than delivered. THIS LAPTOP ROCKS.

also. Inferrence is that Sager doesn't work 
, not so - it works very well. Both Sager and Hypersonic use the Clevos "shell". Going with Sager or going with Hypersonic is of very litle difference (except maybe cost).
What a joker...
