Isn’t this a little dumb to anyone else. why does everyone have to have all of their high taxing games with them at all times. Can’t they just buy a shuttle PC and a small LCD Monitor and call it a day? I’m all for games but I don’t understand why people are buying them and never taking them anywhere. Why take your gaming with you if you have to lug this thing around with you. Can’t you do your gaming at home and when your out and about do work. Isn’t that what a notebook is for, to do work on the go.
