No I am not going to change my avatar pic. Gaming on laptop is crap you have no control what so ever. Desktops will all ways pwn over laptops.

That laptop he's showing is a PC gaming laptop. If Slicingman wants a laptop for every day use then the Alienware laptop is not what he wants.

lol mate, sorry to be blunt... putting a topic such as this on a DS site and expecting others to challenge your most powerful laptop on earth is quite futile.

EDIT: you mention such a powerful machine with the intent to make everyone give up or bow down to your findings.

Just go to your nearest computer warehouse and get the most powerful laptop there. I would do that. To be honest if you try getting the best now....... sooner or later there will be a stronger item on the market and you'll be saying to your self "epic FAIL".

With todays tech in Australia at least, i dont get why they still put in a 56k modem. With bluetooth, wifi, numerous USB etc. Where is the need unless you work for a corporation who still used dialup for VPN access.

That's like saying you shouldn't get a DS because Nintendo is going to keep making other handhelds anyway.

difference is that there are a buttload of laptops suited for different things and theres only so many different type of personal gaming handheld consoles. anyway whats the point in having the most powerful laptop on earth? thats just getting borderline slightly crazy imo
