Razer Announces Dedicated Gaming Laptop

An anonymous reader writes "After recently running a full-page ad in the WSJ saying, 'PC gaming is not dead,' Razer has now announced a new laptop, the Blade, for the express purpose of playing video games. Its most distinctive feature is what they call the 'Switchblade' UI, which is an area next to the keyboard that has a multi-touch LCD screen and 10 dynamic keys. The screen can receive and display information from games, and the keys can show unique icons particular to the game you're playing. The requisite hardware for a gaming laptop makes it weigh almost seven pounds, but it's less than an inch thick. Another distinctive feature is the price — at $2,800, they price a lot of gamers right out of the market. As the article says, 'It's a gamble, but an exciting one.'"

  1. Use a pillow for your health. by Dr.Bob,DC · · Score: -1, Offtopic


    I like gaming, in fact we have an XBOX360 at home, but it's important to mention that keeping a running laptop in close proximity to your body will flood the area with large amounts of electromagnetic radiation and heat.

    Study after study have shown that heat from these devices reduces sperm count in males. That coupled with the EMR being generated just inches from your testicles is sure to cause sperm malformation and even testicular cancer if left 'baking' for too long.

    Other parts of the body are affected as well. Take the prostate. It's only a few inches from your testicles. Imagine about 3 inches into your anus then mentally draw a line to your testicles. Surprising, isn't it? They're just inches away. Now think of the EMR and heat flooding your prostate. When you're an old man and are told you have prostate cancer, you can be sure it's from your laptop.

    During Coccydynia (pain in the coccyx) treatments (where the Chiropractor inserts a lubricated, gloved finger in the patient's anus for manipulation) we've noticed HUGE prostate glands, just bloated with cancer. We aren't even 'aiming' our finger in that direction but there it is: bloated, black, disease ridden, cancerous prostate. By this stage there's nothing chiropractic manipulation can do.

    It's off to the Oncologist and his butcher knives.

    If you must use a laptop, consider placing a pillow on your lap then putting the laptop on top. It doesn't sound like much, but the cancer-and-subluxation causing radiation loses power very fast with distance.

    Take care,
    Bob
