    yea, i don't want 17in, too big (i'v seen the gateway FX for 15 o 17 compairison)

    Keep in mind this is from a guy who would have a 12.1 in with a 4850 if possible xD

    I decided to shoot an email to xotic just to see if they would tell me if they knew of anything new on its way.

    That, or a barebone GT627 would be nice.. because the "rest" of the computer would be like $400, so if the barebone is like $600 (for the 1680x1050), tha'd rock! xD

    Well, there's the vaporware GX623, but I doubt we'll see that one stateside anytime soon. We couldn't even get the cool EX625, and end up getting stuck with the anemic EX623 instead.
