Nice post. That is going to be a beautiful laptop. I am going to get a new one later this year, I want the Merom with SLI. I am going to have to trade in my car to get it.

 

Yeah, it does look pretty nice. I just updated my Sager Models Guide to include it, check it out.

That beast looks like the 5720 on steroids. At 14+ pounds, you'll need a few shots of Dianobol to lug it around.

 

You can't tell just how huge it is from those pics.. We need it next to something for some reference... they need to put it next to a standard 14" so it looks hugemongous. heheh
Or at least next to a current 5720 or 5320.

Find a good chiropractor before buying!

 

Here's the tale-of-the-tape on the 5950:

14.55 lbs. With Battery
18.7”(w) x 13.5”(d) x 1.2” ~ 1.9” (h)

It's a BIG boy!

 

Wow, that's even heavier than a 9750. But, it is a bit slimmer, the 9750 is a little over 2" thick.

Anyone buying this machine isn't going to take it anywhere but the occasional LAN party - I certainly wouldn't. I'm sure this product will find its niche in the market.

 

Here is a detailed review about it here ( http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2006/03/09/rock_nvidia_sli_notebook/1.html). They are saying about 45min of battery life, and that a dual core amd mobile solution would be awesome for the machine. I have to say though, the inside config is engineered really well.

 

Wow they were not kidding about this notebook. I wonder how much this thing is going to sell for. This notebook right here is the Mother of all notebooks.

 

Being a total noob: Is the turion processor AMD's equivalent of the pentium m? BEcause you would think they would use one of the athalons.

 

Yes, you would be correct-a-mundo. The AMD Turion processor is essentially a low-power version of the AMD Athlon 64. It is a direct competitor to Intel's Pentium M.
