    or does it really matter?

    I'm going to get an NP 7352 from either Xotic or LPC. I've went through the configurator on both sites and surprise surprise, they are the exact same price. From going through the forum, it seems like both companies have a lot of positive reviews(with a few negatives sprinkled in, no body's perfect). Is it really just a coin flip or is there a reason to choose one over the other?

    This is my first time with a Sager/Clevo, so I've got no past experience.

    LPC tends to be cheaper if you call them and ask if they have any discounts. Usually you can get $20-$50 off.

    Have to tip my hat to LPC. Very friendly, professional and great prices. I even ordered an SLI upgrade kit from them a few months later and the process was all seamless.

    You'll find the same price for all Sager resellers because we are in agreement with Sager about the price. Since you can also order directly through Sager they dont want the resellers competing with them on their own products with lower prices. You may get other services or better warranties through the resellers then going directly through Sager.
