Thread Starter 
I'm about to buy a laptop but I noticed that I don't have many options to choose from.
I'm planning to get a laptop powered by Pentium-M Dothan (preferably 2.0 or more) with a graphics card such as GeForce 6800 or something similar in ATI but the problem is that only Dell offers something of that kind (XPS2 and i9300)

Does anybody know other manufacturers that sell similarly configured laptops? 'Cause I want to choose from a few options.
Thanks

Sager 9880,
Sager 4880/3880
Asus z71v

Just to name a few. Scour the forums, and you'll hear about tons more, but those are the most talked about. I personally had only seen Dell as well before signing up here, and then I found out there were so many more options. I ended up going with a Sager 4880 from www.pctorque.com (owners of this forum) and am hoping it gets here soon

Good luck in your search,
Matt

Also the Acer Travelmate 8104...it has an x700 anyway. If you want the 6800 or x800 you'll need a heavy laptop like the ones you mentioned.

Dell only, Unless you want a P4 powered 12 lb. Sager..... If you are looking for a true desktop replacement get the 9880.

Dell 9300 7.5 lbs. Depending on configuration (x300, 6800) Pentium M powered
Dell XPS 8.5 lbs. (6800 Ultra only) Pentium M powered
Sager 9880 12lbs (6800, 6800 Ultra) Not released yet, P4 powered

I like Acer 8104 very much. Gb of DDR2 memory, x700 with pc-express and 2.0 dothan. A bit expensive, though.

Toshiba M40 is pretty good (in Canada) if you're looking the brick and mortar store route. It has a 6600 Go with sonoma chipset.
