iBuyPower Battalion 101 LX750 review

The iBuyPower Battalion 101 LX750 ships with an industry-standard one-year warranty that covers parts and labor. The company also offers technical support for the life of the product, which is a really nice perk considering most vendors cut off phone support when the warranty expires. Unfortunately, phone support hours are limited, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday only. The company's support Web site is rather weak, offering only a list of contacts and a handful of driver downloads.
