Acer Announces World's First Curved Screen Notebook

The exposed cpu fan is neat.

I like how they put leds in it and it becomes like a functional art/design feature.

I believe some other sites have mentioned something around a 17 lb weight for this. They did not mention if that weight included the TWO power packs or not. :eek:

Here's another link with a video and a better shot of someone holding the thing (for dear life :laugh:

) so one can see how ridiculously thick it is:

I didn't see this one coming to be honest. Never occurred to me to slap a curved display on a laptop.

Never occurred to me to slap a laser printer on a laptop either, guess we can be happy neither of us are idiots

Guys, forget all that, this laptop has a fricking MECHANICAL keyboard, not a shitty standard one for laptops!!!

It looks a lot like my Asus G75VW laptop. I just put 2x 250gb SSD's in Raid 0 and it screams compiling code. I'm a fan of all of those.. err fans! hehe I like it!

Whispers and guesses of 5K+ are out there.

21" curved display..... 21" curved monitor....21" but why? and on a laptop?? double why?? Well obviously just so they can raise the price and make more money out of it... Why don't I see any mention of a price? Will probably need to sell half a liver, one kidney and a lung to buy this....but WOW what a gaming monster

Not bad, price is also better than Asus Gaming laptops.

So apparently Acer revealed the price at CES 2017 a few days ago. And the price is... well, I wonder how many people were expecting "no less than $9,000" given the specs of this thing.
