Which one?

[RandomNameHere]

Which laptop would you guys say is better? They are both the same price. I like the bigger screen but it has less resolution, not a biggie though. I'll be using it mostly as a desktop replacement. Also if you guys know of anything similar to these at a lower or similar price let me know

They are both about the same, except for the screen.
If you want a higher resolution, get the smaller screen, if you want more space on the screen, get the one with the larger screen.

If you want a better gaming experience, look into something with a more powerful GPU. Either with a higher 7series, but would be a DX9 card.

Or these Toshiba's, which ATM are the only notebooks with a 8700M GT.
They can handle Crysis.

So do they have any of these in America? The Toshiba Satellite wxw?

Another Asus G2, really different from the one at newegg.com? It says it's a wuxga screen not wxga.

Larger screens has always been the best, except that you may find it, it takes up a little bit of space. It's alright if you're not bothered about that one.

I've heard one saying, a larger screen will suck up more battery power. So your battery power will decrease faster than the small screen laptops.

Have you looked at any Dells? You can get much better deals on ones with the same specs or better with a Dell.

Larger screens are not good on laptops. A 15.4" with 1680x1050 resolution is great on a laptop. a 17" is overly massive. My 15.4" is large enough already, and I am really glad I didn't get the 17" like I was looking at in the first place.

Sager 5790 now has 8700M GT. Base price of $1799...

I configured it nearly the same as your first ASUS for $2099 - obvious difference being the GPU...

So I've decided I'm going to get the G2, but now my question is from where.

There are 3 places I have seen.

Gentech

From all the reviews I read, people have bought them from Gentech... and at Gentech they can upgrade RAM and select other components. I would really like to upgrade some of it. So is Gentech trusted and reliable?
