---

A version of the W90 notebook from ASUS introduced at this year's CES is now shipping. The W90Vp-X1 sports an 18.4-inch screen with 1920x1200 resolution thanks in part to the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4870 X2 dual video card with 1GB of dedicated memory. Processing power comes courtesy of a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU and 6GB of RAM. The mainboard is based on Intel's X38, which is made for desktops. A Turbo Gear function will let users overclock the CPU by 25 percent. The W90Vp-X1 also ships with a 320GB, 7,200RPM hard drive preloaded with Vista Home Premium 64-bit and a DVD burner. The notebook also has an integrated 5.1-channel Altec Lansing speaker system with Dolby Home Theater technology, a 2-megapixel web camera and a Draft N Wi-Fi module. There is also a gigabit Ethernet jack, a Bluetooth module and 56K modem.

An HDMI output is present along with a VGA out, with expansion coming via four USB ports. There is also an ExpressCard slot, eSATA and Firewire ports and an 8-in-1 media card reader. Complete with a standard 12-cell battery, the notebook weighs about 11.5lbs.

The W90Vp-X1 is now available at Newegg, priced at nearly $2,200.

ang problema lang kay defeated naman ang purpose sa laptop, like portability.

Instead na regular screen sizes would be 13-15", nagkadagku naman nuon samut. bug-atan na gani ko dala-dala sa akoa laptop na 5lbs ra... kana almost 12lbs wa pa apil ang adapters and etc.

But it has good specs though.

Its has the same story of gaming laptops with consuming more power.

EDIT: And oh, 2k dollars? that's mean. I'd rather build a monster rig with that kind of money.
