    I'm likely purchasing that model, will be early next week, I'll be happy to post everything I can about it, benchmarks, pictures, including shots of the inside since I'm upgrading the processor, and anything else you guys can think of :)

    Man what can I tell ya...I've had my Q706 since Nov 4. I also bought a customized skinit to cover the flames on the lid, that also matches the color scheme perfectly...I have NEVER felt so good about an investment like this in I think, ever lol! Throw ANY game at it, and it plays very well on high settings and resolution...The lowest windows index scores are 5.2(processor) and 5.7(primary hard disk),everything else is 5.9 across the board. After downloading NVIDIA system tool 6.03 I was able to SLIGHTLY overclock my cpu from 267mhz to 297mhz which raised my processor index score to 5.4.
