This looks like a really interesting rig.  I have been out of the hardware end of the market for too long so do not know how it compares to the older equipment I am familiar with (I know it is better).  For any of you that actually have bought this laptop, how well does it do on high end games?   I see the quake and fear scores, but I do not know how much those games challenge a system as comapred to some of the games that Max PC says "will bring your system to its knees".

 

I am looking to replace my 5yo desktop PC and I wonder if this is a good choice.

AT&T Wireless Says it Will Ban P2P Users

Even though I do not agree with their policy, I have to give them credit.  They came right out and said exactly what their stance is.  I live in a very rural area and I really only have three choices for net access, four if you count dial-up, satellite (hughes net), cable (charter), and wireless broadband (Verizon wireless).

I looked closely at each and noted that 1. hughes net is rather expensive and has had some bad reviews concerning overall speed.  2. Verizon states in their policy that excessive bandwidth usage can result in an account termination.  3.  Charter offered several speed/pricing plans giving me more choices and ability to keep in a budget.

I chose the service provider that best fit my needs, in this case, charter and I advise anyone else to do the same.  If ATT wireless does not meet your file sharing needs, go with a provider that does.  Just make sure to thoroughly read the contract conditions. Most providers have them online or will email them to you.
