this is an example of when a product manager doesn't realize that they're not making a budget laptop and puts in a craptastic video setup for a massively huge screen.
at least go SLI if you're paying for an 18" LCD.
otherwise, this is really overpriced for someone who needs a large LCD because their eyes can't read smaller screens. Or someone who uses a lot of Excel.

Gateway P-7811fx uses 9800GTS, which is a much better card than 9600M. I bought mine brand new from Bestbuy and sold a refurb on eBay. If you're going to use this for gaming, get a Gateway.

This thing is so big, it looks thin (proportionally).
