This laptop is really build with gaming intentions, there are many little details that you will see quite quickly. Input devices up front, HIGH QUALITY speakers, STRONG AS AN OX build to just name a few. The weight of this laptop is not really an issue, it comes with a perfect fitting and cushioned case. There's not much to say, it's a beast. 250 fps in CSS. |

I purchased this laptop back in May 2008 as an everyday workhorse. I'm a software developer and work in Visual Studio 8-10 hours a day, normally as client's locations.
A small light weight laptop would be nice, but they are normally slow and have small screens. When compiling 50,000 line projects a few hundred times a day, you need some serious power.
I optioned my N9262 with a Q6700 Quad core CPU, two 200GB 7200 RPM drives and 4 GB of Ram. I also got the higher rez screen and an extra adaptor so I could leave one at my main location and one @ home. I also am running two extra 20" (1680x1050) monitors using a Matrox DualHead2Go. It works nice to have a total of 3 monitors to work on.
I configured my machine and the order took about 1 week to ship and I got it a few days later with any issues. Xoticpc.com was very quick to update me as the order progressed.
I was very impressed after installing Vista 64 SP1. My boot times are pretty decent and compile times are about 3-6 times faster than my old laptop (HP DV9010).
In October I decided to tweak the system and installed (3) 32GB SSD all in a RAID 0 config (Samsung SLC types). ALl I can say is WOW!!! My boot times to Vista are now _1:15 seconds from powerup. My compile times are _5 seconds for a 50,000 VB 2008 app. I wait for almost nothing. HD Tune shows _240MB/sec transfer. Only downfall w/ SSD is cost and size, but I'd prefer to have the speed, and I carry a few extra USB 2 HDs for larger files.
I have a dual Quad core with 16GB ram as my main machine @ home with 4 WD Velociraptor 300GB, and it does not seem to be much faster than this Sager.
For the money, I don't think anything else out there touches this laptop. I have no problems recommending Xoticpc.com. For this type of laptop, I'll shop nowhere else. |
