    Ah, so full of the hype that I've come to expect from Razer.

    Still, it will be interesting to see how the actual production model lives up and what it costs.

    Meh, it's a concept design. Sounds cool, but isn't that always true when it isn't shipping yet?

    I don't see how that laptop can play any modern games, whilst being the same size as an Nintendo DS.

    Maybe if they've bought and patented advanced Remote Desktop technology ...

    That's the charm. I thought it wasn't serious the first time I watched.

    Ze Asian guy acts like the watermark of American style of marketing.

    And on Atom processors, this is a big LOLcept.

    It is. I bet it turns out that you have a special plugin for your PC, so it is effectively "OnLive" powered.

    i don't like the use of atom tho.

    given that this unlikely to see the light of day in 2011 i would be much happier to see it use a 2nd gen AMD fusion chip fabbed on 28nm.

    up to four low-power cores in addition to 256 cayman shader cores.

    that would rock.

    Hmm, what's the bet that Intel gave Razer an offer they couldn't refuse? (Intel being particularly “keen” to flog Atom to the hordes of people who couldn't care less?)
