    Hi!

    I am currently trying to decide between the n81vp-d1, g51, or g50...

    The one big factor I am thinking about is how big the power brick is for each model?

    I believe I read a forum once in which the person said the power cord for the g51 and the g50 are HUGE. Is this true? Does anyone own one of these machines and could tell me what the difference in size would be? If the n81vp-d1 cord is a lot smaller...I might go for it...

    Does anyone have any pictures of by any chance?

    Any help?

    You all rock with your advice.

    Thanks,

    Adam

    Measured with a ruler, the G51's brick dimensions are about 5x2 inches and thickness is a little over an inch.

    I am having a hard time visualizing that...Is it as big as the xbox 360 power cord? Half the size?
