Not too shabby when I look at it compared to what I currently am rocking. The price is also about the same that I paid oh so long ago to boot. I do have to say though that I do like that Razor seems to be targeting developers, indie developers at that, more than just gamers with the new laptops. Not that one couldn't use their machines for both in the past, but usually the power needed meant that the machine had to stay mostly stationary. In the end though it looks like I have some saving to do so I can score one of these awesome machines.
