ASUS launched a monster called stiffly M70. ASUS M70 was born for fulfilling the dreams of those who want a very powerfull notebook. The only negative part is its weight of 3,78Kg but if we take in account its dimensions (41×29.8×3.84 - 3.94 cm) we can say that it is normal.
Lets start with the endowments. For example the model called Asus M70SA-7U032G has an Intel Core2 Duo T9300 (2500MHz with FSB 800MHz and cache L2 de 6144kb) processor. 4 GB of RAM memory are sufficient to run Vista without problems. And if we started to talk about Vista, we need to mention that the video plaque is an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 with 1 GB memory.
The 17 inch screen has a Full HD resolution i.e. 1920 x 1200.
Asus M70SA-7U032G has 1 hard disk of 500 GB but exists a model in M70 series with 2 hard disks of 500 GB each. These are installed in RAID 0 for offering 1 TB of space for stocking. Just try to count yourself what you can place on 1 TB.
And for such space on a hard disk Blu-ray optic unit is the thing you need. Because of the high cost of Blu-ray units this endowment is optional. A standard variant includes a DVD Writer Super Multi.
M70SA, being a multimedia system, respects this high standard and has a sound plaque with a support for Dolby Home Theater. Its 4 speakers and a subwoofer are made by Altec Lansing and are not noname as usually notebooks have.
All high-end class ASUS notebooks have a web cam so M70SA is not the exception to the rule with its 1,3 mega pixels.
With the autonomy of the monster is dealing a battery of 8 cells on 5200 mAh.
Conclusions:
If you want an extremally performant multimedia notebook, M70 is one of the best options on the market. The prize is OK for its super endowments.
But because of its heavy weight we can not recommend it for those who need high mobility.
