HOLY CRAP!

that MSI one w/ the 4850 would kick donkey and take names. Looks really good for the price too!
It's even got a blu-ray player, crazy... lol

I'd go with something like this - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834152103

Mobility 4850 pushing a decent resolution for a pretty good price.

EDIT: I got beat to the punch.

Yeah, but ur link is cheaper and from a more reputable site it seems.
edit: the one on the egg doesn't appear to have a blu-ray drive. thus explaining the price difference.

GAH! now I want that MSI lappy! lol.

My ATI mobile 3650 OC's nice. This mobile 4850 should OC far beyond the stock mobile 4870 making it the most powerful of all listed so far and as powerful as any mobile GPU including 280m.

yeah, theoretically at least, the 4850 should come on par or surpass the GTX280m whenever it hits. I say that considering the desktop 4850 beats the 8800GTS 512 and 9800GTX. The GTX+ only wins because of it's higher reference clocks, and I doubt they'll have 'em up too high in a mobile chip for power consumption's sake.

If this is referring the NewEgg vs XoticPC? Then also 2.66Ghz 6MB L2 vs 2.4Ghz 3MB L2?

Also I would not say NewEgg is more reputable than XoticPC. You just may not be familiar with them. If you are into performance notebooks XoticPC and PowerNoteBooks are the real deal. They both have the highest BBB rating possible and have been in business for years. They offer much better technical support than NewEgg.

Just thought I would share.
