If DS offered Core i7 laptops, I would go with them.  However, I have bought 3 laptops from pro-star.com and they have been great (and they offer Core-i7).  They have awesome customer support.  I think the two times I called for Tech support, there was no recording, a guy picked up the phone directly and was ready to help me.  Def worth looking into, I think.
