The "laptop" just barely fits in my decent-sized rolling luggage. I always get asked questions about it when I take it places. The screen itself is bigger than the 17' iMac. I got $800 off of it from an HP sale, it has the nVidia 8800 GTS and 2 hard drives, and the upgraded higher resolution screen. Resolution is 1920x 1200 pixels... crazy. I think HP is discontinuing it and was wanting to move their inventory. I don't move it often so it suits my purposes, it's a great gaming and multimedia machine. I "need" the screen and video card for AutoCad... Did I mention it has a subwoofer and a remote?

TF2 is amazing on full detail. It's definitely a more even playing field than the maps and classes in TFC, and no grenades makes TF2 more enjoyable. The player animations are little touches that makes it seem cartoonish, like the soldier's waddling walk. Best game I've played, maybe except for SimCity/streets/copter pack, Battlefield 1942/Vietnam, Triple play 1998.

The laptop has a subwoofer? Thats just plain overkill, but at the same time I can understand wanting a little bass on your laptop music. Do I dare ask how long the battery lasts on a full charge?

I can only imagine pulling that thing out in a class "I'm sorry, i'm going to need your desk as well as mine"
