    Wow, the m14x in the video looks small (in a good way). It looks like its really portable.

    Not in any way portable to put it in context. 6.5 pounds is really a rock you'd have to carry for "portable" gaming. The m14x is the best 14" laptop though (if you don't factor in the weight).

    Awful presenter. It sounds like he's at a funeral giving a speech.

    Interesting video nonetheless :p

    Haha I have the same exact feel!

    Take note that what you see may not be what it really is. I mean, it looks even smaller than my xps 14 in the video, which in fact is a tiny bit smaller than the m14x(no more than 1/5'' difference in h/w/d).

    I've got to disagree with you on that. My 17 inch Macbook Pro is 6.6lbs and it gets lugged around everywhere. It's also quite comfy on my lap for a few hours when I'm lazing on the sofa pretending to work.
