    I'm looking at the N80, which has a pretty sick GPU. Don't think I'd have too much trouble with most games. However, is there anything that it lacks?

    And if it does lack something possibly essential, does ASUS have a model that does have it without sacrificing the weight? I'm looking to stay near or under the 5lb mark.

    It depends, most likely not, but what are the specs?

    It lacks a good keyboard. I hate even thinking of having to type on mine....it really makes me want to sell it off each time I think of it.

    why not wait for the new Asus N81? Its promising and has the mid range 4600 series ATI GPU.
