-Sager notebooks, Anyone have experience with them?

Question

Hi all, I'm looking into buying a new laptop for Design school, I'll be running things like 3DS Max, Dreamweaver, Maya, etc. on it, and I was wondering if anyone has heard of Sager laptops? I have a friend who has had a bad experience with them (something to do with warranty) and I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with them as a company. Also, do you think they would be a viable option in terms of the power needed for design?

Thanks so much in advance.

I knew a sharp IT guy that owned one and brought it along on a vacation just like we carry 3 DELL Notebook PCs.  Nothing against SAGER or other smaller less known manufacturers except when making Your Choice and Decision, please keep in mind one extremely important thing in terms of long term investment and what it will cost you for whatever Notebook PC you eventually select and buy, Notebook PC parts are entirety different than our 3 Desktop PCs that allow access and part interchangeability etc extending the life...rather Notebook PC replacement & repair parts despite age & if they are obsolete can get expensive down the road when something goes wrong and it is out of warranty just like what happen to your friend esp a less known brand and not mainstream model purely due to supply and demand bec say you bought a SAGER vs oppose to a DELL, HP, or IBM model or even SONY or APPLE that has more sales and thus more parts in invemtory, well believe I learned the hard way on my 1st Norebook PC that was a rather expensive GATEWAY to me bec I couldn't or didn't want to pay the extra buck$ for a DELL.  The pic today on normal everyday Notebook PCs is different bec the prices are relatively cheap and what I said might above might not actually apply for certain DELL Notebook PCs that are less common and more specialized like what specs you are seeking...

Hope the Above Info Helps!
