[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;47095165]Dunno why you waited 2 fuckin days to say that. They aren't even good examples since obviously buying a laptop is the only alternative purchasing what I mentioned right.[/QUOTE]
because there are other people who posted as well and I didn't read the thread in 2 days
and because your post was an awful example of an alternative, because not everyone who gets a gaming laptop can / will play airsoft, they're too completely different hobbies, It's even more pointless to say when you can do way more shit with a laptop
"could have bought airsoft instead" is such a dumb thing to say because it's missing the point of the laptop,

For 1/1000 the price of a laptop you can buy an entire crates worth of brand new board games instead of just playing strategy games
whats your fucking point mate

[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;47077176]For less than half the price of this laptop I purchased 4 airsoft guns, 50 co2 cartridges, a can of green gas, and a couple extra mags.[/QUOTE]
fair enough, you didn't, but it felt implied at the time
there is really no point in noting the fact that you bought air soft other than to talk about airsoft
like it's such a completely different thing, why even mention that. you may as well say that for "1/5th the price I got an xbox" or "for 1/100th the price I got every 90's boardgame out there"
how would it be an alternative
Sounds excellent. As soon as my fucking awful Y500 kicks the bucket I'm getting one of these, pending a test run at best buy or something.

Was mentioning that I got more (IN MY CASE) for less. I used airsoft simply because it's not a cheap hobby as good guns cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars. Obviously it will vary from person to person but I see no need to spend so much money on a[B] Razer[/B] laptop when you could a very similar laptop from someone else for less.
It was just an example of using expensive stuff to compare how much of said expensive stuff you can get for the price of one really expensive thing. But it retrospect it probably wasn't any fucking good as one as evidenced by peoples response to it.

well, fair enough yeah
I mean, you can play chess online, but that's god damned expensive, or you can take a 2$ board anywhere you go and play it with anyone in a park. You could buy a 2500$ laptop with an oculus rift for shooters, or buy airsoft for less.
Of course, they're such different hobbies in that last case.
I should have used other gaming laptops as an example but I didn't because I didn't think of it at the time. So yeah, I'll accept being called a dumbo for that.
[QUOTE=MendozaMan;47073200]Is that... is that star citizen they are showing? As an example of a playable game?

I'm sorry, but when high end fully specced desktops have major issues running that monstrosity of a game that's set to become the most graphically heavy game in history, I'm just laughing in disbelief.[/QUOTE]
Cryengine is a really scalable engine. Likelihood is that the minimum spec will be gracefully low on release.

Also I agree thatt it's absurdly expensive, but you're paying for the looks and the portability with this. I have a laptop with a quad i7 and 8gb of ram and a 765m. It's a whopper of a laptop when it comes to power but that comes with hefty weight too. I bought a laptop because I told myself I'd need it for the portability - most gaming laptops are far from portable, I rarely took mine in!
This laptop is exactly what laptops should be, portable. That is what you are paying for.

I have a 13.3" laptop with a GTX 860 (maxwell), a quad i7-4710MQ and 8GB of RAM. (with space for one more RAM stick if i want 16GB)
Heck it has a mechanical 1TB HDD and space for two mSATA SSDs (i have one SSD at 128GB)
Point is, you can really get super portable laptops nowadays with great specifications. The thing runs all games I've tried on it, most of them at their highest settings.

The new Razer though looks really kickass. If I had the money, I'd get one.

[QUOTE=itisjuly;47098972]How much does it weight and how long does the battery last? And the price[/QUOTE]
~$1170, including Norwegian taxes*
Weighs 2.1 kilos with battery.
Battery time varies strongly based on what you do, but if you're doing web-browsing and shit it could last up to 4 hours. Don't expect doing a lot of gaming on battery.
The build quality is great, it's very solid. The only thing i feel that is lacking is the quality of the speakers, so external speakers or a headset is recommended ([url=http://puu.sh/fDZxD.png]picture[/url])
Thing is though, it's a brandless sort of laptop. I don't know where it can be bought outside of Norway. Mine was built by Multicom.
(* Without OS and SSD. I already had a Windows key, and I bought the SSD separately)
