Total hipster geek man Livin Large!

Gee, I hope the name is supposed to be ironic. Calling something like that the "ego" can't be coincidence.

My wife could totally go for something like that.
Finally a computer that she could like.
I better not show it to her until I see the price.

oh thats fun.

I talked with them (yes.) at the Cebit 2005.

I even took pictures of them, and held the units (still pre production then!) in my hands



Anyway, if you want I can show some pics.

I showed this laptop to my wife last night, thinking that it was funny. To my suprise, she thought that it was GREAT!!! (aside from the price tag)

@ RS_003: Can you post links to some pics, as my wife wanted to see more of it, but the outside was hard for her to look at, as it was switching images too quickly for her. Thanks!

[RS_003]

PM me, ill give you the links.

[tfflivemb2]

Sweet, she'll like these pics.

Btw, your 6th link references pic #5 instead of #6. (ie. duplicate link) I manually typed in the 6 and saw the 6th pic.

[RS_003]

My bad, I removed them (as you can see )
Since I just remembered I had some other stuff at that site.


But you had to see it for you self, to bad the pics I took are bad.

Btw, I written a little review / article about it, but to be able to read it you will have to learn Dutch
