Congratulations, ASUS.
Someone had to come out with the first laptop with a 1-terabyte hard drive--and you've managed to shove that sucker right into the M70, along with just about every other high-end amenity one could possibly want, including a 17-inch WUXGA display, four Altec Lansing speakers, an Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 ~T7700/T8100/T8300/T9300 processor, an ATI Mobile Radeon HD3650 with 1G VRAM, DDRII 667MHz, and Blu-ray "support," whatever that entails.
No word on weight, price, or battery life on the M70, but I'm sure those will all be totally reasonable, right? Right?

wow. My back aches just looking at those specs. Now, I know this is a "desktop replacement" laptop, but honestly it's not that impressive that they crammed a terabyte into a laptop that should come with a hand truck for transport.
Thanks Asus, but I'll stick with my Eee PC with a pocketable USB drive for my media.

I like what they did with the touchpad...

this is the first oem laptop witha 1tb drive. there are already millions of custom built and user built laptops ith more than 1tb drives. this one actually has 2 500gb drives on raid 0 to give a single high speed 1tb volume. since they do make 1tb 2.5 drives (my laptop has one) then this has the potential for 2tb in the near future. i saw this on the back cover of the latest stuff mag bu i cant find a price anywhere. watch this space
