Never understood the appeal of gaming-notebooks. Where do you guys actually game? on the train?

It's a better fit if you travel a lot (especially going to other countries for weeks or even months).

Makes sense.

I have an MSI Katana for gaming. It's not the latest and greatest, but it plays the games I want it to.

A desktop doesn't fit my lifestyle.

Mostly college students. Most the gaming laptop are just fancy portable desktops and thats how i used mine too

Ah ok, so it's just "expensive gaming" = "great laptop". That makes sense too. I was just wondering how one could really game outside on those tiny screens in a moving train or such :)
