The laptops from Sager seem to be a good compromise between weight and
power, and the price can't be beat, but they only have XGA displays.
Another problem is that nobody I know has a current one.  A friend has
an old (P90?) laptop from them, and he still uses and likes it, but I
have heard nothing about their new models.

Does anyone have any knowledge of these computers?
