Spooky!

That's one helluva laptop...with a price to match. Shame that they're touting it as a 'games machine' though (who'd pay that much to play games..?!)

I heard these laptops were overpriced re-badged generic notebooks (I think by a company called Sager or something).

Couldn't say if that's true or not, but Sager do make very nice machines:

the only true Alien notebook is a Gridcase 15xx with plasma screen

Ha Ha !

A friend of mine is actually buying one of these. Surely you are paying quite a bit for the moulding and the glowing alien head on the top of the case ! But still - his description made it sound even more naff than it actually looks . . .

Good luck to him that's all I can say . . .

Will.
