The Sad/Depressed G73JH-A1 Future Owners Group

[iclicku]

Oh ziddy, no need to depress him further...lol

[ExSaur]

Latest "rumor" from reseller is that the next shipment will arrive
at Asus warehouse March 2. Overnight shipping $85.00 (paid)
Must have A1.......I want...... Maybe by March 3 or 4.??

[Eljoka]

Even if the G73Jh turns out to be a awesome machine, I think it's the last time I pre-order any laptop. So much delays and worries about problems. But again, I won't be buying a new laptop for at least 2 years lol

No "screwing" required with the A1, and as for the memory, we too
MAY get the 1333. Have you tried to buy a BluRay drive that will fit
lately.? Seems like even Asus can't get enough of them. Plus, time to
install, and and. No thanks.!! You got your 1333, we may get a better
surprise, who knows.?? Enjoy your A2.

There is very little,if any, difference between 1066 and 1333 on this machine
if you read ALL the tests that have been done here by the owners.So does
it really need the 1333.??

Well, that depends if anyone paid Newegg's higher price for the A2 than the A1 price at several resellers - but I get your point

If any of you guys want to jump ship and get an X1, I have a brand new one I need to sell.

PM me if your interested.

This thread should have been named the "Torture future A1 owners" due to the
fact that current owners enjoy coming in here and doing just that.
Trust me, 2 months of waiting is becoming a health issue.!!
A1 A1 A1 A1...........where are you.???

Well guys, I hate to say it, but I am no longer buying a G73JH, or a laptop in general...

Instead... I bought this!
