As an IT professional, I have several machines, and I'm about to get yet another, but while researching what's out there in terms of hardware I couldn't help but notice the ads for gaming laptops, and a thought occurred to me: Who buys them?
Students? People who travel? As a gamer myself, I'm very particular about my little cubbie hole/mancave/gaming area. I need my mouse just so; the right height, the right surface, etc. I'm not a pro, but I'm particular. Like the guy who has his own bowling ball. My point is, if you're going to spend a lot of money on a gaming machine, why buy a laptop? If you aren't truly in dire need of portability, it just doesn't make sense to me.
This isn't a diss post, I'm just curious. If you game on a laptop, post here. Tell us what you have, and why you have it. I've always been a desktop guy, but if I had the need - and the funds - for a high-end gaming laptop, I'd buy one.
