Well, I didn't buy that Sony for battery life or video playback, though
this machine plays blu-ray disc at full 1080p on its own screen, since
its native resolution is 1920 x 1080 and it has a blu-ray player on
board. I bought it because it comes with 6 GB ram and includes an
i7-720 quad core processor at a 64-bit os. It rivals both my desktops
and takes a fraction of the space...I do know a lot of people who buy
laptops and park them. They just like the idea of a laptop but don't
really want to carry it around. This sucker as the most wonderful
keyboard of any laptop I've ever seen. It's even backlight at night (has
an ambient light sensor on board). Price is the downside here, as is
portability if one needs that.
If I were only a gamer.....

I still can't believe Asus has a RoG 17" laptop with great video & CPU
for <$1000
AS I just posted, my KB is that width for almost 2/3 less cost & half
the weight though not a desktop replacement by any stretch it will
give one a run for their money on battery life & video playback.

Just got a new laptop..it measures 11 inches from tab to return key
(outer to outer). The keyboard is very spacious. Only problem...this
sucker cost $1400. Sony Vaio vpcf115fm/b. It also weighs about 7 lbs.
Pretty fast for a laptop (portable desktop replacement, IMO).
