A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.

Oh, IT PLAYS DotA!!!
(lolz)
If you look in the background there are a couple of macs being used as a stage for a thinkpad.
Please try not to cry, iEye.
All I see is a macbook pro on the table !!!
yeah, there are two, with a thinkpad lording it on top
Eh? I don't like Macs.
DoTA! awesome. I just finished a game myself, and open up ol' Engadget, and what do I see at the top, someone playing DotA!
Defense of the Ancients custom game ftw
Another bad thing about gaming notebooks is that they're basically useless until you buy a mouse, because who plays using the touchpad. I'd rather get a pc with more power for cheaper and always have it plugged in rather than have a notebook with like 2 hours of battery life.
Logitech VX Nano fixes that. Dell had it like 50% off not too long ago too..
It's a good thing the ASUS laptops come with a mouse, now you have no excuse.
yeah, but its hard to use that mouse if you're on a park bench like the guy is in the article.
That said, trackball anybody?
Ryan,
The article doesn't mention the "M70VM" as you've titled, so it should be "M51VA" surely?
Vi sitter här i venten och spelar lite DotA.
Clak, I'm still waiting for a video of any of those games running through OSX.
but clak, will it play doom?
What a n00b, getting heart as a first item for alchemist. Didn't even level up his stun -fail
Uhh... He's actually referring to OSX, not Mac. No one said Mac can't run games, we'll, without Windows on it you won't be playing a lot though. So if you're one of those elitist Mac users that say Windows sucks, shame on you for promoting gaming on Macs which is possibly by Windows.
Crap typos. Can't we have a petition to make Engadget add an edit feature to the posts?
Seriously... who rushes heart on warlock?
you need to go something badass like guinsoo refresher. =/
Actually, that is Alchemist, not Warlock... but nice try.
Not to say a lone heart is a good build, but I'm gonna have to go out on a limb here and assume he is just messing around in single player. (Seriously who would play DotA on a track pad, and take pictures of their screen mid game.)
yeah, have to agree with some guy, no one would play dota on a touchpad and if they didn't get any items before the heart I doubt they could have survived long enough to farm a heart.
Am I the only one that thinks it's stupid to show DoTA on a 'new' laptop? Hell, I can play DoTA on my Q1 Ultra UMPC.
Nah, I think it's stupid too, but it's cool to see how awesome dota is that people still play it so much. Although recently it seems like a bunch of assholes have invaded bnet.
all the games on mac were on windows too, but not vice versa. Pz mac dudes
I hate dota. Footmen Frenzy is the way to go.
Wait, is he playing Starcraft II on that laptop?
DOTAAAA
