Meh, don't think it's worth it.
You can probably get a laptop with the same specs (without SSD) For about $2000, then get yourself a 256GB SSD for $400.

I really feel like you would be better off with an Asus gaming laptop and put your own ssd in it for around a grand less.

At the end he's all talking about how smoothly Skyrim is running as if Skyrim is some super heavy game that even needs lots of power to max it out. Show us BF3 on it and show us how much that laptop crys.

Gaming laptops are such a waste of money.

thats not entirely true I got my Asus g72gx-x1 (in sig) for about 1400 2 years ago (maybe 3 now) and it was really good with games and still runs almost every game at high to medium high graphics. Its heavy though. But its served me well.
