Nice Job!

You might want to add URL link, for example StarTech isn't Startech.com, it something else. People might get confuse.

Thanks! links added.

good job! Now people know where to go when they want to avoid Sales Tax

Oh any... by the way... I liked your ASUS avatar SO much... I found one of my own... hope that isn't cramping your style

no prob! I found over a hundred with Google image search. feel free to take your pick!

(although I must admit your previous avatars were quite enjoyable )

Now if only there was a way to see the brick and mortar shops...and the return policies!

Our return policy for "Built on Asus" PowerPro models is stated as the first paragraph of the PowerPro warranty. To read the warranty please go to http://www.powernotebooks.com/info/p...o_warranty.php

Thanks Donald. I was considering a powernotebook but unfortunately you guys don't have one based on the z70v and all your 15" models are just too heavy. If you ever start carrying lighter notebooks (other than your 12" model) I will definately be interested! I wish more companies had a 100% satisfaction return policy; it's not really fair to the customer because you've never even seen the product you're ordering!

Thanks for your kind comments!

We will be carrying the Z70V Refresh. We just did not think an X600 with only 64MB made much sense in this market, so we held out until ASUS decided to match the video solution with the rest of the value offered in the Z70V. Funny how holding out makes even ASUS pay attention!

Oh, what weight are you looking for in a 15" or 15.4" model?

Could you find a reseller in the DC area / Maryland / Virginia?

which ones of those Ontario stores (avoids sales tax) sure aint Canadasys, i checked today.

2 questions

1. What places can i avoid that 15% by pay'n cash
2. What places can i get financing on the Asus Z71V

Rob, you can finally take off the * next to our name...

I like how they used the wrong logo... bah.
Should be fixed soon [hopefully] by ASUS.

Hmm.. do most of these stores even accept walk-ins or have one in store on shelf for demo?

Although many probably don't have storefronts, I'm sure they would be happy to demo a unit for you if you ask. Just call or e-mail them, and they should be happy to oblige.

Not for me who use this forum at work lol
