i hear they're the ones that build the alienware laptops.
The notebooks themselves are made by Clevo. They are an OEM from tywan (sorry, no spell check). They then sell the noteboks to Alienware, sager, asus, amung others. AlienWare just ads a $400 paintjob.

If you do decide to go for one of these models, definitely go with a sager. And definitely buy from powernotebooks.com. They have THE BEST customerr servicce and the warenty is pretty good too. They also give you lots of custimization options. Including choice of OS, or no OS at all.

The ONLY reason I would go for a dell over a sager is that dell offers a a removable graphics "card" that can be changed or upgraded. But on the other hand, the sager lets you have up to 3 internal hard drives and an upgradeable CPU, and they use DDR RAM. Plus the graphics are pretty good (ATI mobolity9000).

Plus the sagers are much more linux-friendly than the dells. If you care.

I was gunna get the sager NP8887, but i got a desktop instead.
