7800 dollars!!!!!!!! for 1 laptop!!!!!

 

In addition to the boring stuff like a Core 2 Duo Extreme X6800 2.93GHz processor, 4GB of RAM and a 17-inch 1920 x 1200 LCD, the "laptop" packs a 100GB 7200RPM HDD <em>in addition to two 160GB 5400RPM drives, and really ices the cake with the dual NVIDIA GeForce 7950GTX Go 512MB graphics cards. Other minor details include 802.11n WiFi, a built-in TV tuner and a 8x dual-layer DVD burner. Sadly, the one hour of battery life, 12.1 pound heft and $7687 won't endear this puppy to the mainstream, but would the gamer elite really have it any other way?

$7687... hmmm

 

 

For that I could either go on a first class caribbean vacation for 11 wonderful nights with my wife, or buy a laptop that will be out dated by the time it ships. Decisions decisions.
