    Idk if you guys have heard (I don't see this post anywhere) but Project Warmachine FINALLY is making laptops now. I'm so excited about this because I LOVE Warmachine. Does this mean they get their own section on NBR now? :p

    The specs are as follows:

    Tomahawk x17-
    • 17” WUXGA 1900x1200 Display w/ Glossy Finish

    • Intel® PM45 Chipset + ICH9M

    • Supports ATI Radeon HD3870 w/512MB (M88XT) CrossFire™

    • High-Def Surround sound

    • Integrated Touchpad with Scroll Bar

    • Full Sized Backlit Keyboard 2.5mm Stroke, Vista Key

    • 1 Lithium-Ion Battery (12 Cell)


    Tomahawk x15-

    • Intel® PM45 Chipset + ICH9M

    • ATI Radeon HD3650 GPU with 512MB GDDR3

    • High-Def Surround sound

    • Integrated Touchpad with Scroll Bar

    • A4-Sized Keyboard, Vista Key

    • 1 Lithium-Ion Battery (6 Cell)


    I haven't seen pricing for these models yet, though I've been looking. What are your guys' thoughts? Obviously the x17 is modeled after the OCZ Whitebook/AW M17, but what is with that super weak GPU in the x15?!

    Here are some pics and a link to their site:

    that's a rebadged Arima W840. as such, discussions concerning it will probably be moved to the OCZ section.

    Sound interesting... I'm relatively new to computer so never heard of it. Might be consider if the price is competitive and available in Malaysia... (Damm! :()

    Yeah, looks like it. Still, this is their first batch of laptops EVER so I'm pretty stoked. Warmachine desktops are sweet, so hopefully they start doing some original stuff with their portable systems. :D
