What's the price? I think it's good to compare gaming laptops for value - I got mine for £700 and I don't think I could have gotten a better deal. But it'd be interesting to see what higher spec things go for.

You sir have the moral ambivalence of a mutated shrimp!

These laptops are pretty useless, you can't upgrade anything other than the RAM and hard drive, the battery life will suck more than a cheap prostitute and they'll probably weigh at least 3kg which is hardly portable.

yes but its nice with the all new desk space and the silence from the fans as an stationed computer do sound like an boeing 747.
yes i was also there before thinking laptops was crapp because of that but must say my best buy so far.
and it runs all new games so far without problems
