Hmmm, so playing around with the laptop configurator.

They charge you $100 more for the xenon version of the Q9650
$1000 for 4 gigs of ddr2........
$650 for a blu ray burner
$130 for a fingerprint reader? Isin't that almost standard now?

With every option it comes to just a hair over 17 grand....Pretty sure I'd take a nice used vehicle instead of a laptop.

For that much dough, they should wrap a vehicle around it as a carrying case!

Aaah c'mon that lady is priceless :P.. But the thing in her hand seems like it is worth $90.. I doesn't suit her, my hand in her hand would suit better.. ROFL

7TB's of storage, is that possible, I haven't ever seen that much tbh.. That's like putting 5 x 1.5TB HDD's in RAID, it would be a total waste to have that many HDD's really..

GTX SLI, isn't that outdated now.
