except I paid $750 and swapped out the HDD for a 7200RPM one. This laptop is 10lbs and HUGE, got a backpack especially for it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/200918657061?ss ... 1497.l2649" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The power brick is literally the size of a brick, no joke. This sucker is power hungry and doesn't have much battery life. Performance wise it's pretty nice and the cooling on it is great. Haven't decided if I will attempt overclocking it or not.

depends on what you mean by portable. It's not something I'll take with me to the park or expect much use on a plane. But...if' I'm traveling or going to a LAN party it will be fine as long as power is provided
