A definite option for those looking to extreme –game and having the pocket to afford. A battery life of 1 hour might be a problem with this one as well as the pre –installed Windows Vista, so for those who have the pocket for this should definitely consider the extra cost upgrading the battery and of upgrading to Windows 7 for Vista is definitely not most people’s choice when it comes to gaming, or for that matter even computing.
