    Imagine if you'd only just purchased the 6700hq (Example GT62VR) at the vastly inflated price (UK) then these hit.

    Opps. Oh well.

    But the thickness does not seem to be small enough.

    It would serve you right for being so dumb as to pay £2k for a laptop.

    Am I "dumb" for spending £1600 on a laptop as well? No. Perhaps if it was made by Apple I would agree, but it's not, so I would disagree. I got what I paid for; a high-end portable workstation that's still holds its own now (3 1/2 years later). If you're happy with a £300 crapper, that's fine, but I wouldn't call you "dumb", you're buying for your requirements.

    Re: MSI updates gaming laptop range with Kaby Lake processors

    Question guys. If I buy a 15 or 17 inch gsync gaming laptop like this with a 1080p ips panel, is the picture quality going to be worse, same or better than a 24 or 27 inch 1080p monitor that's sitting further away from me than the laptop?

    And if anyone's bought a current generation laptop in the top MSI or Asus ranges, can you please describe the gaming experience compared to normal desktops? Especially how's the laptop keyboard compared to cherry keyboards by Logitech, Razer and others?
