    My 5720 is madly popping Viagra, but I don't have the heart to tell it not to waste its time.

    Geez - you wanna give the guy a complex? That's a perfectly respectable screen size. It's not all about screen size, by the way; it's about performance.

    Now that I've popped my eyeballs back in their sockets, I can't say I'm thrilled about the thick bezel around the LCD. It reminds me of the retired Sager 8890 that used a 15" LCD after the 16" LCDs were no longer made.

    I think it may be awkward typing on the 5950. Look at the space between the front end and the keyboard. That's gonna be a stretch unless you've got some big hands.

    I have this laptop and every weekend I go back to my parent's house so I take this laptop with me. It's not bad to drag it around as long as you have the bookbag. I gota say that it's quite heavy though.


    EDIT: Crap, i did not notice how old this thread was, sorry for reviving. The thread was in the similar threads area.
