      This is by far one of the best PC out there. If Apple can come up with something 20% of the performance, pedoph!le nuisance_sucks would pay triple amount of money for pink mac and he wouldn't have to resort to doing bacon mod on his pc.

      9+ pounds!!! Still, I guess it's easier to get to LAN parties than a build-out in an Antec P180...

      Why would they put a 8800GS when they could have added a 8800GT?

      They called the 8800M GTS as a G92 chip although with 96 stream processors so more like a G80 ...for mobility VGA this was super sprem kill technology.

      They're moving this old Nividia stock as ATI Mobility solutions are ready and flanking the main front. http://www.amd.com/us-en/Corporate/VirtualPressRoom/0,,51_104_543~126120,00.html
      Or for those who game with notebooks at LAN parties I like this idea Hybrid the internal VGA with an box of whoop Ass 4870 when needed.

      Why did they put a fast GPU with a ridiculously slow processor?

      Talk about piece of crap, although cheap for a gaming lappy.

      Well, fix it yourself, the CPU is easily accessible and you can buy a T9300/9400 for less than $400.

      #8 is right. If you want a faster processor, it's easy and cheap to upgrade. GeForce Go 8800M GTS is about the best notebook vc out there. I'd rather buy a notebook with best vc and acceptable processor than a notebook with fastest CPU but some garbage like X3100.
