WD - This is a replacement for the Toshiba and will serve the same duties as before. It is a desktop replacement laptop which stays plugged in and is never moved around or transported. The Qosmio has a 18.3" screen and is not something one throws in a backpack and heads to class with lol. If battery life were high on the list I would just use the Acer netbook I have already. You consider the MSI platform a Vega??? http://www.nvidia.com/object/optimus_technology.html

And just what do you find odd about a 327 in a Vega?

No the MSI platform I am sure is as good as any other, just when you mentioned resale value my buddies Vega came to mind for one reson or another, but meant the resale value reguardless of the motor AKA GPU is shit on laptops and Vegas alike ...............


And when you said you were not gaming on it the only thing that even makes sense would be if you do 3D modeling or plan to fold on it


I am not altogether sure that this makes any sense, just trying to hit you with a hammer as asked .......
