Pros
LOVE the TOUGH LOOKING PANEL DESIGN and ports out the wazoo!
Cons

I just got mine a while back and I have to say I absolutely LOVE IT!!! Not sure what this DJ_ILKZ is on about with his fanboyism but even the 11inch is faster than his precious mac (650m vs 620m). I got mine with the 7970 and I'll be honest, was a little worried at potential catalyst driver issues, but the 680m was too far out of my reach and at only about a 5% increase in performance I thought I'd give amd a shot.
WOW is all I have to say!! This thing handles anything I throw at it and begs for more. I couldn't get the THX app to work either but sent them an email and within the hour a rep called me back and told me it had to be activated... =| .......
I was scared the red panel was gonna be a bit too much but it really looks mean and its not too showy, just showy enough if that makes sense? Anyway can't say much about the long haul because I haven't owned mine very long but I can say it smashes bf3, dishonoured, and borderlands2. it's not exactly for everyone but if you're a gamer that needs a relatively portable solution and have a bit of quid to spare, this is the laptop for you.

Just wanted to respond to the idiot above me.
You are comparing an i7 Windows 7 computer to a Macbook and saying the Mac is better value?
Please stop spreading such fanboy BS around to confuse people.

for this price this is not considered to be the best laptop for gaming i was in the market recently looking for gaming laptop and with countless hours of research for money etc... i went with a retina display macbook pro 15 inch with quad core i7 and the Nvidia Geforce 620m it runs battlefield 3 and such other demanding games on ultra on 1080p
