A Very Solid, Niche Product UPDATE (10/15/2013) – I’ve decided to keep this. I tried the GS70 (128 gb SSD model) over the weekend from a local store and have to say that in almost every way other than price, the RBP is a better machine: display, battery, heat, noise, build. And though I’m not in love with the Switchblade, it’s better than the touchpad on the GS70 which is less responsive and has no R/L dedicated buttons. Not much more to say there, just my personal preference and others may disagree.A few additional follow up points. On the “heat” issue, I think that’s markedly improved with use. Can’t really explain why, but this can be set on your bare skin during gaming use if you really wanted to. The battery is a real pleasure. It’s so good that I don’t always notice that it’s not plugged in. It’s not 8 hours, but it’s phenomenal for a machine of this caliber.The Switchblade remains gimped, frequently resetting itself, not allowing tapping to be disabled, dedicated buttons…
Finally, an attractive and portable desktop replacement! My wife and I live in a small condo, and had an unexpected addition to the family. I had to get rid of my gaming desktop to make room for the nursery, and made due with console gaming for a while. We have a Macbook Air that we’ve been using as our primary computer since it can be left around the house without being an eyesore, or being difficult to relocate as needed. So, that was my criteria for a gaming laptop; I wanted find a laptop that could play games and not look ridiculous if I left it on the coffee table. I had been eyeing the Blade and decided to go ahead and give it a shot.I’ts been about 2 weeks and, overall, I am very happy with it. The screen is beautiful, it plays everything I’ve thrown at it perfectly (Skyrim, Farcry 3, Bioshock Infinite, Dishonered, Metro, and a few others), and performs well outside of games as well. The Switchblade is a little glitchy, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, but it’s a solid trackpad and the extra features are…
