    I'm in Toronto, Canada and I'm hard pressed in finding a display unit to look/touch.

    Anyone know of any retailers with a display unit or someone in the GTA willing to let me look at their ASUS G50v?

    You could try looking at some local Best Buy store to see if they have the G50V-X1, but they keep breaking them.

    I was in the same situation.

    Try calling PC Village and talk to one of their managers and ask them. They told me that if I was sincerely interested in buying, theyd open one for me.

    I called the location at bloor/yonge
