I was looking for a top of the line laptop for the fall semester, and I came across the Lamborghini ASUS VX2.

You can check out pictures of it here(pages 2 and 3 show you the best pictures), it also gives a detailed description of the laptop:

Is it worth buying, or am I spending too much money on the Lamborghini name?

Gee, the nvidia 7700 DirectX9 card is going to work well with Vista's DirectX10.

I'd go with the Ferrari laptop. It's got like a 4 page ad in every PC world.

You can get the Asus G1S for $1800-something. And it has the 8600m GT and WSXGA+. Lamborghini is a horrible buy.

Isn't there are Ferrari laptop, too? What's with car makers doing laptops?

Looks like you'll be paying extra for the name. If you have nobody to impress, then why buy designer?

Asus builds quality setups - but your over paying by a LOT.

.FTW.

I've got a feeling you're paying for the name. Big time.

So did I, until I tried making a XPS and a HP laptop with the same/similar specs. They all came out to be around the same price or more.
