I think I'll wait for the price to go a little higher. Closer to that $1M mark.

Did you actually find a price on their site? I looked, but never got past the specs.

There's nothing really special about their machines... just a hash of all top-end components. If you look past the marketing hype, it's really just a high-end custom computer. Their laptops are the same thing as what Sager is doing (I believe they both have the same OEM; go-l just has their rock in their laptops).

2- Go-L actually managed to declare bankruptcy at one point. Don't ask me how.

A while back Maximum PC or CPU did a cover story on L computers. However, the system that they were shipped did not have several hyped features like the RAM based hard drive and other things that set it apart. Later, the website was offline and no contact could be made with the company, so the magazine printed a notice.

I'd be a little cautious.



P.S. If I'm wrong about this, please let me know.

"Bluetooh connectivity expansion"

How would one expand these monitors with bluetooth? Other than acting as a bluetooth hub, I can't think of anything else.
