buy it. it's basically mine with 4 cores and a slightly better graphics card (more memories). even the mobo chipset is the same. if you wanna nice comp it's prolly better than messing with that asus external graphics thing-a-mabob.
on another note, thank you so much for posting this sean. It made me go back and check the specs on my pc and I just realized that I have a DVD burner. The past couple months I was thinking that I should've got a DVD burner for my comp instead of just a cd burner and, in fact, I did. I feel really retarded now. I'm going to make DVDs for EVERYONE!

YAY DVDS! And I wish I could buy this, I almost can afford it on my own. If I got a job, I could buy it. And yeah gaming + laptops dont work, even if the external thing will even come out. IMagine the possibilites if I finally had a cool computer! I could be able to play crysis on mid specs!!

Crysis rapes all computers. You'd probably need an 8800 just to play it on mid-specs. it owns my 8600. pretty hard. I don't think there is a consumer level computer that you could own that can play crysis on max-specs. Maybe if you had a couple of these though... ( www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133189) Actually i'm pretty disappointed by my 8600 in general. It's not much better than the 7600 that i ran for years (HL2 only gets a few more FPS). If i get a good amount of monies for christmas i'm gonna grab me that new 8800 gt (which, so i hear, is the cat's pajamas in price-to-performance-ratioism). |

yeah I hear the 8800gt is the only graphic card thats "worth it" right now. But for me, anything is an improvement 50 fold. Remember, this laptop is the most powerful computer I have ever owned, which is sad.

oh and wow, that video card you linked is apparently used by pixar according to that one review. "They have about 20 computers that SLI 4 of these in each."

Dont hate Thomas. Mac will finally get some respect with Unreal tournament coming to it. Another step in bringing games to mac.

I played Unreal Torunament like 8 years ago bud. But then again, that IS a significant advancement for Mac.
