Video: ASUS G50Vt gaming laptop gets benchmarked, reviewed

The original G50V reared its somewhat unsightly head way back in June of last year, but the torture-testing crew over at HotHardware managed to get its paws around the slightly refined G50Vt. The 7.5 pound machine (dubbed a partial boat anchor, for the record) sat through a nice video recording session, and afterwards, it smiled real pretty while it was benchmarked and given a critique. For just $949, it actually fared pretty well under medium-to-serious gaming pressures, and it proved capable enough to warrant a recommendation for anyone scouting a "powerful desktop replacement or semi-portable laptop." For a closer look, head on past the break for the video and down to the read link for everything else.

Really weird

Yeah, I'm glad some one else noticed the weird aspect of the product shot. If you close the lid, hm - well, it wouldn't work.
