I actually love the subwoofer, because I listen to music and game with speakers, and having an optional but not crappy built in sub is an amazing addon in my opinion.

My favorite thing about that notebook is the build quality. The aluminum finish gives it a professional touch, while the red bevel and the badge hint at its gaming 'orientedness' without being all in-your-face about it. The slim not-so-fat form factor adds nicely to the aesthetics, as well. A very nice machine, indeed.

I think my favorite thing is the great balance they achieved with the Dark gray / Black / Red colors and brushed aluminium. It looks professional and aggressive at the same time. I would love to use it in my workplace and then geek out on it with my friends at LANs. But the first thing that should be done is to remove the whole bottom cover, and do a protection spray paint on it, to make sure those signatures stay in place :) 

 

Good luck for everyone !

My favourite thing is that this is a gaming laptop even if you can't play everything on ultra high settings, well considering the fact that I can only safely play games on my current PC on lowest setting it wouldn't really matter to me.

That think looks really nice, I've always been a fan of black and green color schemes but this laptop looks really nice with the red. I'm a mobile gamer and I hate lugging around my whole desktop so a gaming laptop would be really nice. Best of luck to all!
