    Valve are good to us, the gave away portal as well. This is a great way to get more people using steam.

    I have a Gulftown rig also, but havent turned it on in over a month...

    Games like this are fine on a laptop, handy for 15 minute pick up and plays so would be ideal for me and OSX which I use for any browsing / working I do at home.

    This is why Valve and Steam are pro. They give us this stuff, and still update 3 year old games. They're the best, though their constant time wrangling does get old.

    We sell Mac and OSX gear. ;)

    As a piece of build quality it is better than any laptop available by any other manufacturer in my humble opinion.

    Expensive, but for me and what I use my PC for it was a justified purchase.

    Would I recommend one to any of my friends, no. Would I buy another one for myself in a couple of years - certainty.

    I've already got plans to fire this up with a few friends tonight, can't wait. I'm in definite need of some alien mauling to take my mind off work.
