Fourth in the series of laptops provided by my office (provided I exercise them thoroughly and file lots of bugs) is the Alienware Aurora m9700. Unlike the trim portables I've had in the past, the m9700 is a beast of a machine, and actually isn't really supposed to be terribly portable at all—it's a "desktop replacement" machine, which essentially means it's portable if you really need it to be, but it's otherwise just big and fast.
How fast? Well, this bad boy has a 2.4GHz AMD Turion 64 chip in it and a solid 2GB of memory. It's one of a handful of laptops to have a 7,200rpm hard drive (100GB of it) which is awesome, because that's generally one of the biggest bottlenecks on these things. But the best part? It's got two 256MB nVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS graphics adapters driving a 1920x1200 17" LCD.
But good god, it's heavy.
It's heavy!
Oh, it's so heavy. I'll probably get pictures of just how freaking huge it is in a day or two, but that still doesn't express just how ludicrously massive it is.
