    Can't afford a Lambo? Try a Lambo-inspired notebook instead.

    The system's display measures 16in and provides a 1,366x768 resolution, and there's a built-in Blu-ray drive for high-def movies on the go. Surprisingly, ASUS has opted to drop the SSD storage option we first saw in the VX5, opting instead to equip the system with two 500GB hard dries.
    Are they raid0 or raid1? I'd have thought 1tb of data storage on a lappy would be a tad excessive tbh. I'd still rather see an SSD in there, I mean, it's all about speed & performance.

    Would be interesting to know how well the battery performs in high power and low power scenario's. Cant imagine it to be too great.

    Yeah, it seems like ASUS have based this on the rarely-seen Lamborghini Reventon Minibus Edition.
