    I've been a long time NotbookReview member and have only posted a few threads... but I must give some feedback on HIDevolution ... @Donald@HIDevolution has completely redefined to me what amazing customer service is. I placed an order late last night (after MUCH research) finally deciding on the computer and then finally who to order it from. I woke up this morning and an email was already in my inbox from Donald and I replied with my availability to receive a call. He called me in between two meetings, perfect timing, and what an absolute pleasure it was to talk to Donald. He gave me some very good insight and verified for me some items I was on the fence about. I was amazed that a person actually called me, cared about me, my needs and was not in the least bit pushy, just friendly, genuine person!

    I cannot wait for the EVOC P6050HS-G to take over my desk. I'll make sure that I keep everyone posted on the experience with the laptop and HIDevolution. Another HUGE shout out to @Phoenix for all his informative posts and pointing me to HIDevolution! I was told to hook up with you to make this laptop run like a swiss watch and scream like a race car.

    Forgot to thank @HTWingNut for his review on the P650HS-G, there are few reviews out there and it really helped me to pull the trigger on the 120hz screen. Thanks!

    @Donald@HIDevolution stop it, your hitting your quota for number of posts gushing about you in a week. This is like the 5th one??

    I reiterate for like the 40th time, Donald is the man. It's always a pleasure to interact with him. He goes way above and beyond.

    I also own an Evoc Clevo P650RS (same thing but 6th gen cpu). Feel free to ask me any questions about it.

    Watching the process of getting this laptop has become painful. Realize this is a 'first world problem' but now the status is "Parts/Product on order" ... guess they have to order the screen?

    No, it's been two days shy of a month now since I placed my order. I did email Donald last week and he replied that he wasn't in production so he didn't know the exact details but that something was wrong with the screen and that he estimated this week it would ship. This week is over so I guess I'll be emailing for them to cancel the order and look elsewhere. A month is kinda silly. I've ordered custom built laptops before so I knew what I was getting into ....
