If you're crazy enough to buy that

Wow, how do they keep that bad boy cool.

If we thought the MBP was hot, this will scorch your lap.

Since Dell bought Alienware they lost a lot of their edge and design. I hope Orgin captures that again with the ex-Alenware guys.

+1

and some of their system is cheaper than alienware


and, the base model EON 17 (not -S version) has a intel i7 950 in it (OMGWTF)

Laptops with desktop CPUs aren't really a new thing, they just aren't very popular. this is a 12lb beast which explains it, it's not very portable anymore.

This is the dumbest idea ever. If I really needed a machine with those specs, I'd buy me a desktop. Besides, this damned thing weighs 12lbs which makes it as heavy and has only an hour of battery life which I think is rather generous considering they SLI this thing.

Crap laptop and I don't think its ever going to take off.

This is uh-merica! If we want it, we'll buy it!

There's a small market for this. It's niche, but it still serves a purpose.

Much like the Mac Pro.
