Welcome to the forums!

That notebook is so new, I doubt you'll find a review for it yet.

Yea, anyone actually have it?

In theory it should work fine, cooling wise etc

Well cooling should be good with this one cause of side fans

Check out CyberPower, I've been pricing a laptop for a trip i'll be taking, and have found them to be noticeably cheaper than anyone else when it comes to overall value.

We'll probably be reviewing a CyberPower laptop in the next month, once INTEL releases their new Santa Rosa processor and 965 chipset.

From the looks of some of their things, iBuyPower is a 100+ bucks cheaper for the same laptop but with just a upgraded Video Card.

Hmmm, maybe you aren't looking at the same thing I am.....I've matched up three different INTEL notebooks, with the exact same configuration, and CyberPower has come up $27 cheaper each time

Which one are you looking at?

I heard iBuyPower doesn't have the best rep for warrantys. Is this true?

I've never actually purchased from IBuyPower, but we've dealt with Cyber Power and Puget Systems.

INTEL's new processor line and chipset will be released this week, so it'll be interesting to see the prices

Prices going down huh? I guess i'll wait a bit

How's CyberPower, good with customer service, RMA, etc?

Cyberpower's site seems extremely similar to iBuyPowers also.

I've had really good luck dealing with CyberPower, and One4 has also worked with them, writing two reviews of their desktops.

I like their laptops because they use ASUS chassis', which i think are among the best.
