#22The last thing the PC gaming community needs right now is another insanely expensive piece of hardware with a gimmick attached. I really cannot see this going anywhere within the community.

Agreed! Expensive? Sure it is. But I applaud Razor for trying something daring. Given how slim it is, those specs are pretty outrageous.

I didn't realize MacBook Pros had touchscreens on the keyboard...
Look at this gallery of product shots: http://www.engadget.com/photos/razer-blade-0/ That is Apple's industrial design language. They could have made it look like anything and they chose to ape apple, that's lazy.

#28On the flip side, a 17" display means you have room to keep both on the screen at once, negating the extra display. 15" model please?
