Eurocom Leopard 2.0

The Eurocom people tout the Leopard 2.0 ( $ 3,606 direct ) as a mobile " workstation and / or play class " laptop . We can talk to the users workstation , but players will appreciate its sleek lines , gentle lighting effects , graphics and extraordinary performance . This massive laptop is not only one of the fastest desktop replacement to reach our laboratory , it was already packed also wonderful parts , including a sweet display 18.4 -inch HD , dual AMD Radeon GPUs , and an Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition CPU . And while its $ 3600 price tag may seem steep , it is almost $ 1,000 below our Editors ' Choice Alienware M18x . Sadly , this is a great deal that can be difficult to obtain .

The Leopard 2.0 is big : it measures 2.8 by 17.3 by 12 inches ( HWD ) and weighs 12 pounds , which is a bit lighter than the Alienware M18x but still burdensome , especially if you take along the large 3.2 - pound power brick . Based on Clevo P180HM chassis , the Leopard is not quite as edgy as the M18x , but it is a smart - looking laptop however . The lid is made ​​up on a high - gloss black mirror finish with backlit tribal design in the center and chrome trim around the edges . Keep handy a polishing cloth because the glossy finish is a showcase for fingerprint smudges . Unfortunately , Eurocom has not used the P180HM chassis , according to a company spokesman . Instead , it is transferred to a 17.3 - inch form factor , which means that the Leopard 2.0 is being phased out in the very near future .
