Interesting Request...
-
I've got a client who's got money to burn. When I say money to burn I mean he's big time liquid in cash. He asked me if quad core laptops were out or what the very fastest, highest performing laptop is right now with screaming graphics abilities and he wants it hot. Battery life... he could care less. Weight... he could care less. Pure processing and graphic workhorse is what he wants. I don't keep my nose that close on a lot of this stuff. For those of you pure and hard core gamers if someone gave you unlimited budget on a laptop with a 90 day purchase window what would you want. Are there 3 different machines that would make your short list? He's hot on Dell and since Dell is now Alienware that's convenient. So what's the prodigy beast out there right now?
I've seen interesting machines in the Sony's Vaio series of notebooks. They look like an horrible giant mutatation of a normal laptop, but sure will make happy anyone who has loads of cash.

Well Alienware only has two so easy decision there: http://www.alienware.com/Product_Pages/notebook_all_default.aspx[^] There are rumours of quad core notebook cpu's from Intel in q3 '08. Recommend the Alienware, you can't go wrong with it in this scenario. He'll show it off to his buddies and Alienware has the cred that they'll agree it's cool and he will be happy with your recommendation.

I would look trough Alienware. I think the machines are great. Cheers

So, why doesn't he buy a big tower box with a 1KW power supply and loaded with graphics cards and memory and a 39" wide screen LCD and run down to Home Depot and screw in a couple hinges to mount the monitor so it can fold down onto the tower. Instant "laptop". Battery life? Who cares! Weight? Who cares! Marc
Hey, I'm flying around in a hot air balloon and I'm lost. Can you tell me where the air port is? Actually Marc, I'm giving you a huge nod for a clever answer. I think you are a cranky, moody and at times malignant participant on these message boards and I love reading every last one of your replies. You are like the Bridge Troll of codeproject and I love it. Great response. Do you have a riddle for me so I can cross the bridge?

Since when did 18 months equate to eons? I guess if I did not read any news, especially news related to the two companies, during the week this was prevalent, I would not really have a reason to know about it. Couple that with Alienware still operating independently under its existing name, and that's just a recipe for low-visibility news. Oh well...

The Bridge Troll has a warm and tender side if you can find it. :) Marc
