    Prediction- It's like every other unboxing ever.
    PLAY BY PLAY COMMENTARY:
    Box looks different.
    Oh look, a USB hub. What the heck is he going to use that for?
    HE FOOLED ME! I thought he was going to go to the computer first. But then he goes to the cooler.
    Oh, here he goes.
    Nevermind, it's the USB hub.
    Looks interesting.
    I think the box is different... different from mine anyways.
    NOO! Not the accessories first! Think Different TM.
    Yes, the power brick is huge. You could probably commit homicide with it.
    The battery will probably do the same.
    I wish I got a mouse. T_T
    Oop oop here we go...
    AW! A USB drive?! Ung.

    Aw. I miss my G73.

    If you do a factory restore you will have it... That little video at the beginning is from the first time a machine is turned on..

    If you have the factory harddrive in the machine and did not delete the restore partition you can just hit F9 repeatedly during boot to restore the factory image but be warned it will wipe out all your data ;)...

    I don't get the whole documentation of unboxing laptop videos, give me pictures that list ports and specs and I'm good.
    I'd be more impressed with gaming videos to see what this baby can do.
    If I ever made a unboxing video(never!) it would probably last 10 seconds, that's how long it takes me to get a laptop out of a box ;)

    When you're waiting months on a pre-order for a new machine, a good unboxing video is like p0rn! lol

    In this case, we already know what the chassis looks like so it's pretty much...meh.
