Just received my Asus laptop from Xoticpc. Mods were minimal, more RAM, upgraded SSDs, stripped Win 10. Assembly, attention to detail, cosmetically clean were all as expected and the laptop performs way better than I expected. Payment processing was a bit slow (I paid credit card), but all other steps were done quickly and shipping was fast. Accessories offered are overpriced and they did put an Xoticpc sticker on the machine (small neg) that I removed. Sales support and tech support (I contacted tech support once) were also fast and right on. I would buy again from my NE friends at Xotic.
