So I work for a developer and my bossman is all like BRAH I NEED A ROCKIN LAPTOP FOR DEMOS AND REMOTE DEVELOPMENT AND SHIZ, and that made me realize that I kinda want one too. Wondering what everyone here rocks, because as of now I'm looking into:
:bow ROG :bow2
Alienware???
Samsung?????
-
Surface Pro, dawg.
-
What's your budget?
-
Sager
-
$1500+?
No on Surface Pro
-
Sager is what I was eyeing before coming to my senses about just building a home rig.
he can get as crazy as he wants with the specs, they always have the bleeding edge shit:

Sager seems to be backordered until March 5th on a lot of stuff.
Anyway.. random $1500 gaming laptop on newegg.

That's pretty damned sexy.
The AlienWare one looks like a bad movie prop.
-
Razor Blade is overpriced, sure, but it solves a lot of problems
mostly, me not having one
-

Nvidia chipset preferably. Lots of RAM for elite Photoshoppery. Sexy display always a plus. Maybe a little actual battery life as opposed to enough to move from one power outlet to the other. Under $2k.
-
i'd go with a sager with a 680m or 675m.

dat Skulls royalty cheque

I have an MSi gaming laptop, they're pretty goddamn powerful and a pretty good value for what you get. Bought mine over a year ago and it can still run the new releases with full settings and has still better specs than most current systems, dropped something like $1400 or so at the time. I'd imagine their current lineup to be pretty damn good too.
-
dat Skulls royalty cheque
Hahahahahahahahahaha hoooooo oh god
-
Is this the same brahmanager that was buying stupid stuff all the time?

Okay Van Cruncheon, do you have anything that is sexier?
The client says that both the Sager and the Samsung are too ugly, or "it looks like something someone coughed up"
::)

Apple feggitry.
Does anyone know if the G75VX is any good.
He says "I trained at one of the top industrial design schools in the world and I know a thing or two about design!"

Alienwares are TOO UGLY and the prices seem pretty jacked.
*But we appreciate that as ugly as they are, they are running with it

That is such a badass piece of industrial design, considering the era. The //c still looks like it could be used as a prop in a SF tv program.
In contrast, here's what IBM was putting out at the time, and China was cloning as quickly as they could push them out:

No, you'd need a pc 10 years more recent in order to run MW2. This can run JET and Rogue.
-
Why would you get a gaming laptop? Do you travel a lot?
-
I can put my laptop on my lap and play on the couch, shit is better then off screen play on wii u or a big telly.
-
I guess it depends on the game. Most of the time I prefer sitting at a desk and then a desktop PC is both cheaper and more powerful.
-
I don't like to sit away from the couch :(
-

We have to go on the road and do demos of our game a lot.
-
Then it makes perfect sense.
-
The ROG has arrived, we are basking in its healing power

Which one did you go with?
-
If it's related to demos, and MS is your publisher, see if they have any of their own, recent, MS-branded items on which to demo.
-
I actually like the look of the Sager laptops...
Not that I'll be able to afford one any time soon. THANKS A LOT OBAMA.
