So I didn't go with the HP I blogged about earlier.
Instead, I went with this:Tundra F1-560 Gaming Laptop15.6" Full HD 1920X1080 WidescreenIntel® Core™ i7-740QM Mobile Processor (4x 1.73GHz/6MB L3 Cache)4GB [2GB x 2] 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAMMobility DDR5 1.5GB NVIDIA GTX 460M500 GB 7200rpm HDD4X Blu-Ray-R/8x Dual Format DVD±R/±RW + 16x CD-R/RW Combo DriveBuilt-in 7-in-1 Media Card Reader/WriterStandard 802.11 b/g/n Wi-FiMicrosoft Windows 7 ProfessionalCivilization VCivilization V might just be the best feature.And I plan on replacing the hard drive with a 100 GB SSD.It's ordered, so there's little changing my mind now.
Your battery life will be amusing.
Because really, Flashback, who plays high-end games on battery?
I'm buying a laptop for the portability, not the ability to run on battery.
The only time the battery comes in handy is when the power goes out right when I'm in the middle of something. But that's happened to me a total of zero times the last year.I could buy a desktop and get the same performance for cheaper, or more performance for the same price. But I don't feel like lugging a desktop with me aboard a ship. And selling or storing it aren't appealing options to me, either.I like having my primary computer as a laptop, I don't think I'm ever going to switch back to desktops =p
i need a job so i can afford a nice laptop
Just bought myself a new laptop today.
Just Laptop.
