    I'm looking forward to trying this screen for myself. Apple has put together some very effective multi-touch devices, and I'm really anxious to see how other companies can improve and innovate further.

    dunno about this. touchscreen on a notebook. Well, the 'lid' would need to be very sturdy to avoid wobbling or just pushing back everytime you touched it, which could make it very annoying to use.

    I just wish they would build these things to have a twit lid so you can then lay the screen flat on the key board so the screen is facing up.

  • I think a determining factor would be battery life!
    With a graphics card that high, and Win7 running it, I suspect we won't see anything near 4 hours with this machine!
