Stay off my land.

I will KSF if you don't.

K thnx

I see you haven't changed at all either.

Sad really. Still getting upset over nothing and taking everything literal.

Awwwwww i missed you too baby :þ

Marshal will touch you and not the "oh yeah" sort of way, more the "call for help" way

I just rewatched your retirement video Vic.

i stopped a few months after the jolt/swirve/omac closedown.

cam back last week :D

Also I just noticed the blatant racism in my signature. Man I miss this community sometimes

Just as long as she knows I'll be a bastard father all is good

It is quite cheap on the scotch end. I collect though so start on the cheaper end and work your way up. I'm already into the 400$ tequilas. Just got a bottle of gran petron piedro.

Nz should be soon scode. Vegas this February then over seas next year.

We shall make fluffy love. The reckoning is upon us.

That is all

Just moved everything out. Off to my friends parents for the night and dinner then on the road out west.

DUST OFF YOUR DARTS!

WHOA A TUBE TV!

I thought those were just myth.....

QZ is busy atm though. I doubt ill see him for very long myself when im actually in Edmonton

Just went for lunch with my boss from the John Labatt Center and the reality of moving just hit me.

I leave on wednesday and man its hitting me now.

FREAK OUT!

i could have gone to lottawa this week but figured ill be on the road quite a bit over the next week so i sadly turned it down.

And I am westward bound.

Going up through north bay and doing all of everything from Ontario to Edmonton with a detour into Calgary.

Along the way? PM me your number and ill stop to say hi on my way through.

QZ and Patty make sure you send them to me before I take off. Chances are I won't be online much on the road as my laptop is way to big to be playing with in the truck.

GALANDY GOES WEST!

Anxiety is just starting to set in......

I am Canadian and have Pandora.

Though the web interface sucks and I mostly use it through Boxee

I'm not your guy, Friend.

I'm not your buddy, Pal.

they guarantee the rates now if you order from them. So even if they are cheaper then whats listed you have a guarantee to go in with

I dont know what you guys are talking about but from what ive seen flights are cheaper based on how full the plane is.

Thats why it only costs me 150 to go to vegas but 3-400 to go to the east coast from ontario.

Makes more sense that weekends would be cheaper dependant on where your going. Best thing to do is experiment with expedia.ca.

They seem to have the cheapest flights from what ive seen, just play with the dates a bit

uhhhhhhhh i dunno mate. Kyle and martian in the same room is a DANGEROUS combination

I see what you did there......

you know Alvin is in BC fluffy....

I would like to point out that if scode doesnt respond its because he fears the truth and admits fully that this statement and any others statements made about him in this thread are nothing but true

book i knew i would never eat at his house.

For martian

I stopped at the spice fest on the way back to the gardiner.

Shoulda ate there :( Hoops was expensive for mediocre food and a long wait

Galandy < martian

That is all

oh thank god.

I thought it was going to be a stupid Galandy quote from earlier today or something. :P

Good job mate :D

My CPU and VC are last gen along with the SSD, however I do think the price difference would be half. Laptops are Insanely cheap compared to a few years back and the price difference isnt that black and white like it used to be.

No i DOnt and I do understand that, but the qeustion is what on a daily basis do you need that amount of power for?

Unless you are using some sort of CUDA application that takes full advantage of those video cards, besides knowing you have all that power, whats the point?

By the time that hardware can be used to its full potential you will have upgraded to something 10x better and so will have I.

Do you see what I'm getting at here? I owned a desktop for years and dont get me wrong i loved it. OC'd to insane amounts, Dual 295's(which still demolish most of todays high end cards) 8tb of storage and enough ram to impregnate an entire flock of sheep.

At the end of the day even when i was sampling cuda type applications that system was never used to its fullest.

How many of us were these kids?
I remember having one when they first came out.
Remember my mom telling us to treat it well because it was so damn expensive.

I think its great i still get joy out of playing alot of these games and i still have the unit. Though it takes a few hours of blowing the system and cartridge to get them going. I also got a DSI XL a ways back and threw emulators on it so i have these games on the road.

Zelda ftw.

If its before the end of sept im in for a meet before I leave.

I will be heading to niagara at some point before i take off so i could make a detour.

I also plan to hit up Van city in the winter for some snow boarding and hopefully meeting up with H4 though he doesnt know it yet :P

Mine is. This thing is faster then most peoples desktops here with power to spare.

How much power do you need though?

I can run every game on max settings, with the SSD everything is lightening quick and its always with me.

Yes your videocard has more power but name me some software that actually takes your card to the fullest that you use daily?

There is none. Software is years behind hardware so why not have the best you can in a portable setting?

What do you mean?

Like software wise, what do I use?

When I was six i was tearing apart computers and putting them back together.

I grew up in a very tech oriented family. I used to always have a desktop. I always built my own and was quite happy with desktops.

We are talking back 186 to K5, Voodoo Video cards and all that.

Over the last two years i got better and better laptops and now have completely ditched desktops.

I have secondary monitors, a wireless mouse and keyboard and as technology advances with things like WiDi I don't even need to plug into the TV anymore to stream my high def media.

The best part of it all is everything is always with me at every point in time. I have a 70" TV(the projector) in my bag at all times plus everything I need to keep me happy in my laptop bag.

The laptop would probably put 90% of the computers here to shame in benchmarks and I have all the joys of a portable desktop. It is the main reason I sold my desktop and have moved to a completely portable option.


At the end of the day what benefits does a desktop have over my laptop? That's what I asked myself and well, the answer was right in front of me.

Laptops are the new desktop. Sooner or later as parts get smaller and more popular there will be no need for desktops.

The thing looks badass and I can not wait to see a review on this badboy.

However I must say, Price: US$2799.99 is a bit frightening.

Currently I run an Asus G73Jw.

http://rog.asus.com/...t.aspx?PId=39#product_tab

Basically the same specs(minus the sandybridge in the Razer) but I'm 2 and a bit pounds heavier.

I spent on sale for this laptop $1599.99 plus taxes to put it up around 1800 ish. Then add in the $400 SSD and a 1 TB backup drive. 2500 ish. Add in a Razer Orochi, a Ironclad Mousepad, and a CoolerMaster SF-19 and we hit around the 2800 mark of this lappy.

To make up the taxes add in the fact I have a Pico projector, and array of media cables, Headset, external speakers, surge protector and a couple external HDD and we are basically at the same spending cost.

For the 2 extra pounds, a bit thicker of a laptop and a slightly slower processor I have to say I would rather my setup then Buying this thing.

I understand with HP in talks about moving out of the PC industry this is a great time to get in on their sales but at 2800 plus tax I think its a bit steep for most gamers and i dont think this helps the PC vs Console arguments.

Though I appreciate the effort from Razer, i would have rather seen the Switchblade released and under 1k. A Nintendo DSI size gaming netbook under the 1k mark would have separated from the pack and done wonders.

Too bad really.

i was just told about this and thought i was just having muscle spasms on the couch. Cant believe we felt it up in the great white north

I NOE RITE!!!???!!?eleven!!1

on page 2 there is three locked treads

Its just sad that for such a great weekend we got treated like that to end it off. Good way to discourage us from ever sending anyone their way in the future.
