I'm not. While Razer Rocks, look at the price tag. Over $2800 for it, and it only has the specs of a normal 750-1000 laptop. I dont think a fancy OLED touchpad/buttons are worth that much more to me if I want to game on a laptop.

I woudl rather buy a $1000 laptop, then put the other 1800 into upgrading my main computer, and everything left over I would go on a vacation to the coast for a week.

If it was cheaper, it would be ok.
But with this pricetag nty.

 

[billybombill]

icanhaz? If I had money I would get it or something like it

 

[Keith]

close to 3,000? I'll pass.

 

[Caustik]

Nice laptop, pretty awesome, too expensive.

 

[Number12]

Its super awesome, but just to expensive.
If it was at least 1.2-1.4k then I would consider

 

[ihatehaxor]

Yea its $2,800. The price is EXTREMELY high.. I wish it was in the 1k range..

 

[Rishwin]

The price is high as balls, but compare the actual confirmed specs with the initial prototype specs of an Atom processor with 2GB of DDR2 and you see why.

I'm actually happy that it was done this way - I'd rather pay top $$$ if i was going to buy this, rather than pas less and have a below-par gaming laptop.

lmfao, I thought this was a spambot's thread spamming about razor blades XD

 

[Alfons]

Black macbook with slightly upgraded specs, meh.

True gamers will scoff at this. I scoff at the idea that they're trying to save PC gaming with this.

PC gaming on a laptop.... I know people can pull it off and say it feels "right" but I would prefer a Desktop PC over a laptop for gaming.

At least they were right when they said Blade was meant to own Mac's price tag included.

To me the the only cool thing about the laptop is the SwitchBlade UI.

I run windows native on my macbook, nothing wrong with it :

People like to misinterpret marketing & advertising terms.

They aren't trying to "save" PC gaming from anything, it's doing just fine the way it is. What they WERE trying to do, is show people that the development for PC gaming is still in the works and that the focus has not completely shifted to the consoles.

The entire point of this is to have the trackpad on the right hand side instead of it always being on the palmrest.

If you wanted to game on your laptop, you needed a mouse. That's the way it has always been. But with this, you can use your left hand for WASD while your right hand is used on the touchscreen as a cursor.

They were trying to create an all-in-one mobile gaming solution without the requirement for additional peripherals, and i think they've succeeded.
