"The Hypersonic Avenger AG2 notebook was just launched on May 22nd, 2008, but that doesn't mean we haven't had a sample for well over a month now. The Hypersonic Avenger AG2 notebook is the same thing as the Clevo M72R notebook, so Hypersonic was able to get a production sample in our hands before they officially started to carry this recently released 12.1" notebook. This gave us the chance to do a long term test drive, which is something we rarely get to do in the fast paced computer industry.

Pretty powereful Laptop but I pretty much think it defeats the purpose of owning a notebook. Using a computer on the go.. so with not such a good battery life I wouldn't really want one of these. Battery life > performance for me.

But I hear there is this new technology that will revolutionalize the battery life of notebooks. If I remember correctly it's like 12-24 hours. Now thats impressive.

Maybe once those come out in the near future I might get a powerful notebook other then that. Sticking with Thinkpad :P

nice review nontheless
