Ante upped with quad-core ‘laptop’
Back problems not sufficiently crippling? Skin on thighs lacking adequate scar tissue from burns? Laptoping.com has a story on a new portable that could be right up your alley. The Xtreme 917V Accelerator from XtremeNotebooks (purveyors of all things Xtreme) are now offering a quad-core notebook that–if actually used on a human lap–will likely destroy your Xtremities.
Besides the Intel Core Quad processor running at either 2.4 GHz or 2.66GHz, there is a 17-inch display, with single or dual NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GT or NVIDIA GeForce Go 7950 GTX video cards. The beast can handle 4 GB of RAM and three hard drives, and if you want a Blu-Ray drive, all you have to do is ask. And for those of you asking Well, that’s all well and good, but does it have a subwoofer? Do you really need to ask? Of course it has a subwoofer, this isn’t open mic night at the laptop factory.
For $3359 you get all of this and an affirmation of your masculinity in a convenient 12-pound package.
