$1300-$1400 laptop, any decent brands out there besides Dell, HP, etc? - Page 2

I do like that Sager, I could possibly up my budget for it. I've never heard of em though, time to search for some reviews on em. That's going to be like the very top of my budget though.

Oh thank you for linking me to XoticPC. I'm 90% sold on one from them now. I just wished they were closer so I could get it the same day .
