It's a decent machine for what it is now, its 6 years old, but those g-series are quality. I have a G74sx at home and its still a decent machine with its 2nd gen i7 and gtx560M graphics
Yah, I think that model has a 5870 radeon graphic chip too!! Not sure if you've had a g-series before, or if you even care but they are heavy (for a laptop) 8.5lbs. in this case.
