Razer Claims Upcoming Blade Is “World’s First Gaming Laptop”
Whoever said Razer is the new Alienware wasn’t far off. Alright, it
was us after going through the spec list for this thing. In fact, we
might be a bit off, because this thing doesn’t really look like
Alienware’s usual fare, i. e. some sort of Goth Cylon. It even looks a
bit… grown up if you ignore the radioactive green branding.
At this point, we’ll just unceremoniously drop the spec list on you:
2.8GHz IntelCore i7 2640M processor
8GB 1333MHz DDR3 memory
17.3″ LED Backlit Display (1920×1080)
NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M with NVIDIA Optimus technology
2GB dedicated GDDR5 video memory
Built-in HD webcam
Integrated 60Wh battery
320GB 7200rpm SATA HDD
Wireless network 802.11 b/g/n compatible
16.81″ (width) x 10.9″ (depth) x 0.88″ height); 6.97lbs (weight)
And that’s not even mentioning the multi touch pad/in-game info LCD
and the programmable keys. Razer calls it "the Switchblade User
Interface” and says it’s "a revolutionary innovation that truly defines
the new standard for gaming experiences on a laptop.” And it can be all
yours for only $2799, several months of patience and a willingness to
import if you’re outside the US.
