Ive just ordered a Pegasus 665 from Rock , not had any previous experience with them , but read some good things about them , and most owners on the forum seem to be happy with their machines , the 3 year warranty is really good and is probably what sealed the deal for me , anyway mine comes this week hopefully ... Ill keep you posted

Thought I would give you an update on the Rock (Pegasus 665) ...had it a few days now and really impressed and delivery was as promised ,although its the first laptop Ive owned and comparing it to my daughters £500.00 Acer . looks very classy in an all black chassis , battery life is around an hour fifty so not too bad and I only use it round the house anyway.
spec is
Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 1.83GHz 2MBWXGA (1680 x 1050) X-GlassNVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 256MB1GB DDR2 667MHz (512MB x2)80GB 5400rpm SATA8x +/- Dual Layer DVD WriterWindows XP Home
And you get a 3 year warranty
all in it was £930 but i used my daughters student discount card and got an extra 3% off
Run a few games and it plays half life 2 and far-cry at full res really well and they look although its main use will be Photo editing , Rock have there own forum as well so comes in handy for feedback etc
so far so good

Got an xtreme64 from them. Best laptop i've ever owned/used. Build quality is superb and customer support is on the ball. Think i'll stay with rock for the next few years for a pc laptop.
