I response to what Habib (aka; beepster) started.
I have purchased Sager & other laptops. I did not purchase directly from Sager and did so through resellers like PCTorque.
I had never heard of PCTorque or this forum until the other day.
I spent a good amount of time on the phone today with Adam from PCTorque. He is genuine and really takes pride in helping his customers. It was a little awkward on my part when I called him because you see I am also a a systems integrator with an office in Massachusetts and an office in Cranston, RI. I was so impressed by his manner in which he treated me that I felt it is my duty to start this thread.
Anyone that is thinking of buying a cutting edge laptop should feel comfortable buying from PCTorque. It is not that the system is different than what you can get over at Powernotebooks.com It's the people that are going to be there for you when you have got a question. And you will have some. Adam seems to be a great guy with a passion for what he does. We both service different markets and specialize in different technologies. I am glad to have a local company to develop an alliance with. Also, this forum is a great example of their dedication to help all.
I asked Adam about this guy Habib, "Does he work for you?" Adam replied "No and he does not even own a Sager" With a resource like that for this forum we should all pitch in a couple of
bucks each, send it to Adam and put a deposit on an 8886 or a 5660 for him. Imagine the tech support then!
On a different note, I would like to CAUTION anyone who has considered buying anything from portablecomputer.com. They are another ODM type reseller like Powernotebooks. They do not deliver in a timely manner, they do not deliver what you ordered, For weeks they will tell you everything that you want to hear but do not do what they say. I have never delt with such a lying and deceiptfull company in my 11 years in business. I am still trying to get my $2,600.00 refund that I gave them on Nov 18th. BEWARE! a pretty website can be quite a different animal. The sales guy is a real charmer, has this knack for stringing you along for weeks. You have been warned.
My Advice is buy a laptop and a relationship from PCTorque.
