In case you were wondering there are other Asus laptops out there other than the Eee PC lines. The G70 is a more than powerful gaming machine. I’d love to get my hands on that. The things we could do together… Good thing that I’m not into computer games like I was once.

I thought today was a cell phone news only day but here we have a scoop on the future 17 inch Asus G70 (gaming) Notebook.

Here are some specs which will make everyone want more:

• Intel Core 2 Duo / Core 2 Extreme processor,
• 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi,
• twin 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GTs,
• up to 4GB of DDR2 RAM,
• dual hard drives availability,
• WUXGA / WXGA,
• Blu-ray writer,
• 2-megapixel camera,
• Bluetooth 2.0+EDR,
• gigabit Ethernet,
• 8-cell battery,
• built-in Altec Lansing stereo speakers,
• a subwoofer,
• an embedded TV tuner,
• a remote control.

How would you like to take it for a test? I wonder how this 10.6 pound mammoth costs and how can it live up to the famous Dell’s XPS systems?
