19'' laptop?

19" laptop?

[Spiffor]

What is so bad about it? I could at last have a serious transportable gamestation

[Q Classic]

Aside from the fact that at 19" it's not really that portable anymore?

Laptops with screens over 15'' are way to big IMO.

Regarding Tablet PCs: the complete Tablets are something I would never consider buying; the Tablet/Laptops, OTOH, have piqued my interest for some time, although I had quite forgotten about them (I think I'm the Apolytoner Asher referred to previously). This indicates they have not gained widespread usage and popularity, but that does not equate to Tablets being complete garbage.

I have never used one personally, so I do not know how sucky the handwriting is using the pen and screen - perhaps it is so sloppy as to make it impractical for taking notes, writing down equations, etc, (which is why I would want/need one). However, assuming one could write on the screen legibly and with ease, then I would certainly consider buying one. After all, you can get them for ~1300$, which is not absurdly expensive.

Well, if the whole thing is less than 10 kg, I can still transport it from one table to another, every time I move or go to a LAN. That's how I use them laptops

[Q Classic]

10kg? bleah.

My 6lbs laptop is more than enough to handle basic gaming, which isn't even why I'd want a laptop in the first place.

[Spiffor]

I don't care about basic gaming, I want full-spectrum gaming!

[Q Classic]

We're different markets, then.

[Verto]

Then buy a real gaming platform.

If I was still in school, I'd seriously have considered getting one. They sound great .

You need a TV for these things. I don't have such a thing.

[Verto]

How primitive.

[Spiffor]

TVs are big, and thus difficult to move. I am trying to live with minimal stuff, considering that I have had to pack it all and move it about 10 times in the last 5 years.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Get an LCD TV, they aren't difficult to move
