Malibal VS Mythlogic

[Hutsady@XoticPC]

So let me this this straight. Malibal/Xoticpc/powernotebooks are resellers.. where as Mythlogic is not?

Xotic PC and Powernotebooks are Sager resellers so when you order a computer from us we get it from Sager. They do the build and ship directly to you but we add things like better warranty and tech support compared to buying directly through Sager. We also offer things Sager doesn't directly like the Redline boost or Custom skin.

We build our machines ourselves from Clevo shells directly, we purchase our own parts, we do all our own assembly and testing, in addition all warranty work is performed by us. Everything is done out of our Ann Arbor, MI location.

Who do you buy your shells from Myth, if I may be so bold? I've heard that you don't buy them direct from Clevo, so who's your hook-up?

We buy from a lot of different importers, all over the world, just depends on price and availability. So we don't really have the single hookup. That's how we are able to have things longer etc, as we can just buy it from a different importer around the world.

Maybe I am making a mistake, but I'm seeing a price difference of about $200 bucks between Malibal and Myth on the exact same spec P9150EM/NP9150.

I was leaning toward myth...but that is alot to overcome

Same here. No matter what config, it seems it always goes about $200 up on Mythlogic.
Probably all the extra testing and such.

I think it really depends on your config. The base price for Myth is higher than other resellers, but it's cheaper to add a lot of options. For instance, to upgrade from a 2670 to a 2760 is roughly $50 with Myth versus roughly $150 somewhere else.

I ended up going with Mythlogic because the price difference for my build was negligible, and I liked their testing protocol, upgrade plan and what I felt was great customer service. YMMV

apples for apples folks, make sure the warranty, OS, and other things match before you make that assumption/statement. Some of the builders don't play the "lowest price" config game just to draw you in. When we get the new models up, we probably won't do that either. Price is always a factor but again don't get drawn in by typical marketing tricks.

Well, I've had the opportunity to visit Mythlogic in person and I have been impressed with what they have going on there. I'll be completing my order on a 1612 today.

Remember to check a couple things.
Myth adds windows OS to the option while the others don't. If you don't want windows, there's an option to remove it. (Scroll down)

That and Ic thermal compound (which is a must for gaming laptops) is +35 anywhere else.

Yeah, I was going to buy the p150HM from Mythlogic but as soon as I compared the price between them and XoticPC and Malibal, I held on to my money.

I'm thinking about buying the P150EM from Xotic or Malibal. I still can't decide between the two.
