Hopefully just a site mistake...

Yes, I believe this is a mistake, because they are only listing the 1 yr ADW, which is NOT Asus's standard warranty!

I agree with this statement they placed therein:

" Below is a summary provided for convenience only and may not be accurate or current."

Well, I had to actually work a bit so I didn't end up getting to cancel the warranty part and have been charged. At this point, I'll just wait and see. If nothing else, I have a huge warranty on the thing that can potentially be passed on if I turn around and sell it in a few years.

I still plan on putting another HD in it (going with the Hitachi 500gb 7200rpm) and a BD player in it (now that I've seen how to remove the bezel I'm pretty sure I can do it without issue) so it'll pretty much be an A1 by the time I'm done, and I'll have it a month + earlier.

I appreciate everyone's replies on the subject and I'll be sure to come back and let you know what I find out when I get the package from Newegg.

One lesson from this pre-order mess I'm taking to heart is don't count on these things getting shipped until you have one in your hands. I'll cancel GenTech when I have the X1 purring on my desk...

It's not my fault ASUS seems to have screwed their prime resellers, and not the reseller's fault either. But if I was Ken or Justin and had just spun my wheels like they have for the past month I'd be livid, and letting the mothership hear about it. It's a heck of a way to run a railroad.

I'm not bashing your decision, just surprised at the fact that you spent another 1500 without checking to make sure you are due a refund from Gentech.

After my wait and waiting

I have my new G73JH A2 in hand


However I have a keyboard p9rob;lem


The fo;l;lowing keys are typ9ed together when either of them are p9ressed

This is the same as Wal-Mart -vs.- the small businessman.

I would imagine Newegg will sell more G73JH's than all of the active resellers on this site put together. That's probably why they got more. I honestly didn't know a thing about XoticPC or GenTechPC before I came to this site specifically.

I buy ASUS motherboards all day long for my customers' builds, so I decided to stray away from Lenovo and try something new. But really, I had no clue legit resellers existed, because I've always built my own. Can't do that with a laptop. (Well, you can, but finding parts is what sucks.)

Dude, that sucks.

I'm crossing my fingers for you that the keyboard in the G73JH is the same as some other ASUS models so they can just send you one.
