    Anyone know anything about this vendor? They offer the option to Dual Boot this computer. No one else seems to. I plan to email XoticPC and PNB to see what they might charge. But its the weekend and I prob wont get any answer til tomorrow. RKs price is comparable to both of these.

    RK Computers is very good, They are a member of this forum. There products are great and there communication is excellent.

    The 1722 is a great laptop, I own the 1722 ID2 version which is the red and black one. They support Quad cores and are very easy to upgrade, GPU and all. They overclock very well to, up to 24% which makes a diffrence in games. Hope this helps.

    Its good to know they are thought well of. Makes my decision harder tho'! :D They offer the Dual Boot, but they only offer a 1 year warranty. Others offer the full 3 year Parts and Labor. So I wait til tomorrow to hear back from XoticPC and PNB if they can do the Dual Boot.

    Thanks for the info. From what I have seen in here this should be a very good High Mid range gamer with very good sound and video.
