I would too.
But I still want one.

A netbook with enough power to render a game in at least medium quality is going to be well over the price of a top line laptop. Start saving money now, NAMKCOR.

Agree, but let's see if/when things pan out at all and the performance first imo.

Its too small.

It's supposed to be a mobile.

Post by: Holkeye on January 07, 2011, 12:45:33 AM: A 7" screen is not big enough to enjoy any PC game that I know of.

I don't honestly think I'd use it for full on HD gaming like WoW or whatever, but for on-the-go gaming when I want to play a PC game rather than a mobile game, it's a great option.

Mine came with temporary rub on tattoos.

Couldn't see myself getting one but..

Post by: EvilM00s on January 08, 2011, 04:47:37 PM: If I could take WoW anywhere with me on my very own little 'puter I would :mayo: all over myself. Unless it cost anywhere near 1,000.
Title: Re: Razer Switchblade
Post by: Moss. on January 08, 2011, 04:49:57 PM: I'm sure it doesn't cost anywhere near 1,000, because it will cost much, much more.

Never look at laptop prices then.
Title: Re: Razer Switchblade
Post by: EvilM00s on January 08, 2011, 08:05:18 PM: Pffft, I don't. That's just exorbitant. I use the laptop at work.

Post by: Irock on January 08, 2011, 08:25:40 PM: Anyone remember the Optimus Maximus keyboard? That thing was like two grand. If that's any indication as to how much this thing is going to cost, this is probably going to cost a bit.
