I have a Sager 5100c series notebook with 64mb of RAM, a 6xDVD-ROM drive, and a 6gb hard disk.

12.1 TFT Active Matrix Screen is small, but bright. The keyboard is well laid out for it's size, especially the shift keys.

I'm having a bit of a problem with the pcmcia card modem Sager sent with the package, however...doesn't seem to want to work with my release of GNU/Linux Mandrake 7.1 at all. Must be a win modem (ugh!).

If you wanna chat me up, you can find me at /server irc.dal.net #StoneHearthFireplace on IRC or <firefishe@yahoo.com> OR <linuxstose@voyager.net>.

I like my sager box...I think they're a good machine and a good value for the money, depending on which model you buy. Speakers are a bit tinny on the 5100c, but I use headphones and that solves the problem.

Best regards,
Stephen

I've own two of them (before my current Compaq). Never had any problems with them. The only complaint was that the case on each of them was a bit thin. You could bend the plastic pretty easy. Functionally, I liked them both. In fact I am looking to sell my Compaq (its a K62-350) and get one with more horsepower. I am looking at Sager's 3350 very closely.
