Thanks for the laugh.
Our Stormtrooper buddy needs to shine up his gear if he hopes to match up with the ethereal glare of that machine...
So without any information re: the processor or pricing... What am I supposed to say?
There are so many questions to be had about that picture, sans the laptop.
Seems to me, stormtroopers should have tubes for waste removal. This way they can #1 or #2 without stopping their oppression of those pesky rebels.
"...the target is a small exhaust port ..."
Pretty cool looking laptops.
So... this is a craptop computer?
So thats the real reason it took so long to build the deathstar, too many storm troopers on the crapper looking at porn.
That's the problem with clones, they're all guys. Throws the ratio at the clubs way off. Major sausage fest. I vote no clone soldiers.
either that or make clone women too, but i cant imagine going to that club. imagine trying to find your blind date!
I wonder where we will be in 3 years time, 16:9 or 16:10?
Answers ppl I just can't sleep til I know
Pretty crappy photoshopping on the chest plate. Clone brush FTW.
not to mention the fact that the laptop is at a super awkward angle for use
not to mention that it's a fucking joke... christ, some people...
"These are not the 'roids we are looking for."
"You know what? I agree. Preparation H does feel good . . . on the hole."
"Stormtrooper or Mr. Orange Beanie?"...ASUS and MSI marketing teams planning for next ad campaign
I would have thought the helmet has a built-in computer anyway.
An 18.4" screen is a huge screen for a laptop, isn't it?
Honestly I'd rather have a 12" with a midrange graphics card that can pump out the 12's highest res with good fps in TF2 :)
That's a little silly don't you think. A 18.4" laptop is obviously marketed for a different consumer than a 12". You might as well go commenting on all the desktop computers saying, 'gee, if only the would have made this a 12" laptop I would buy it. What were they thinking?'
What I was trying to convey is that I see little use for a gaming-centered 18.4" widescreen laptop in today's market, besides the person who is too lazy to drag their tower and monitor to a lan party.
I was also trying to convey that a smaller screen with a less-demanding-than-high-end graphics solution might make for a better mix for someone interested in a portable gaming solution, with maybe an hdmi out on the back of it with an adapter to make it dvi and audio out.
My main point is that going with a bigger screen and marketing it as a portable gaming laptop isn't the best solution if they want alot of people to buy it, especially since they'll make it cost 3000$ due to the screen size (damn you, marketing department!). They'll get 200 sold to enthusiasts and discontinue the overly-large line in 2 years.
I don't know about you, but I don't think I'll see anyone buying overpriced gaming laptops with gimmicky-feeling addon cards to improve performance by 500% any time soon, with the US in a recession. But alas, I speak from my experiences in western PA, so maybe you can afford it.
nice pic! thanks for the laugh and for keeping the humor going!
nice look to the lappy, probably fingerprints less than a macbook.
A better caption for the pic:

Crew is #1'ed because they can't #2
...and here's the perfect chair to decorate your stormtrooper flat (fourth from the top): http://www.laisr.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=50:chair&catid=37:projects&Itemid=37
Incredibly slick design even if it looks a bit chubby. But it shouldn't be a major concern for a laptop that size since it would rarely leave the home behind.
Thank goodness the rebel base was not on Uranus.
Yipee now I have a laptop to match my daily suit. Stormtroopers FTW! We should build a new death star lol.
danny choo?
