The FragBook

Posted by michael on from the lap-burning-goodness dept.

Petaris writes "For all of you hard core gamers out there a new choice is availiable for gaming notebooks. Introducing the Falcon Northwest FragBook. This notebook will be in direct competition with gaming notebooks from several competetors including Alienware and VooDoo. Falcon-nw, VooDoo, and more recently Alienware are the place to look for insanely high end and usually fairly expensive gaming systems. The gaming notebook, a more recent arrival in the industry, promises more recent processors than are commonly available for notebooks. Just make sure you stock up on batteries or settle in next to an outlet. :)"

    Geez, I feel stupid. As my glazed eyes scanned the article, I was thinking, wow, a book of notes (notebook) on gaming... Maybe the best strategies on winning FPS games, or even notes on designing/programming great games...
