So that is basically a desktop replacement at a most probably twice of a desktop cost.

Actually it's quite the opposite. It's the thinnest and most portable 17.3" laptop. It's under one inch thick and almost as heavy as the Y510p.

Now that is interesting. Since a 17.3'' is one hell of a lot big size some times I consider my 15.6'' huge for normal call work but yeah I would love to see some new type of cooling mechanism in this beast.
