Having owned my new laptop for a little over three weeks now, thought I'd give it a review for posterity-

Fucking brilliant. Service was amazing too- slight problem with the PC when it arrived (didn't even turn it on as it had a cracked screen...) but it was picked up by courier same day and I got it back within another two, no quibbles at all. I can sit here and play Empire:Total War, Call of Duty, Battlefield etc. at ultra settings and the computer barely notices. This i7 is a fucking beast of a processor and I have yet to really max it. I could probably do with a couple of gig extra RAM (it generally chugs along at about 50-70% usage depending on what I'm doing), but that can come later. For the price I paid, the service I've received, and the quality of the build, it really is faultless, and if you're looking to spend over £500 on a laptop I cannot recommend them enough.

Only thing that slightly bothered me was that it came with Windows 7 Ultimate pre-installed despite me asking for it to not come with an OS. It's not a complaint, but I would have liked the option of installing the OS' I want (like I thought I was asking for when I specced it as 'no OS') rather than turning it on for the first time to find the windows logo greeting me. It's alright, just made installing ubuntu a little more complicated than I was expecting.

Nvidia GeForce 740m 2GB. They only do the 750 with the expensive screen option unfortunately, but I'm more than happy with what I got.
