Does it really need to be a laptop? There are use cases for sure. @scottalanmiller travels the world so it makes complete sense for him. Does it for you though?

I've been on RoG for years now. After having multiple gaming machines artifact due to heat I started looking for something that could vent better. When I found RoG I was floored. Thankfully I was able to get mine used for quite a bit less than new. Unfortunately it is starting to show its age.
We need to get Asus sponsoring around here, lol.
I have a really nice Asus monitor too. Love it!

Hi, friends, I'm looking gaming Laptop. Did Alienware its great Laptop for gaming. Any suggestions?
I use Asus RoG for gaming and am very happy with it.
Me too.
This is the one I got: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FFRD1NU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
LOL, somehow we turned into an Asus RoG community. It was @Mike-Ralston that turned me on to them.
I got mine last August 2016. So I've nearly had it a year now and it's still like brand new after using it every day.
Got my first one at the end of 2015, second one in mid-2016. Planning to get a third Asus laptop in two weeks. And when the budget is there, there are plans for a fourth.
What are you doing with them all? I dont' know what I'd do with a second similar laptop.
- Asus RoG #1: Windows 10 Steam Video Game Laptop
- Asus RoG #2: Ubuntu 17.04 Workstation that I'm typing from now.
- Asus Chromebook: For conference and travel duty.
- Asus ZenBook 3: To finally replace @dominica's Lenovo.

I like my Logitech G9x

@Tim_G
It's the only one I could find with a simple and small design, without the 500 buttons and crazy architecture. Plus the option to go wired as well. I like Bluetooth 4.0 better than other wireless options. -
I use this. Gift from my Liesl because she said "daddy needs a good wireless mouse for work" two Christmas ago.

Yeah... I'm not about to waste a car payment on a mouse! (more than a new car payment!)

That is an amazon third party. Don't pay attention to the price. I got mine for $99. Seems like they don't make it anymore which is why the price is set so high (I'm guessing).

I'd use it for my desktop though. It's not overly big like many others.

I stimply can't use mice for gaming any more. I'm too tied into the trackball ecosystem. Give me a logitec marblemouse, and I'm happy!

Ew. One of my old roommates was the same. I don't understand and if there is a chance of me understanding in the future, I refuse.

I am a fan of Asus laptops as well. Well built and not overly expensive for what you get.

Have you seen the "joystick" mice? Anyoen try those?

A lot of folks have the same reaction, lol. But I pretty much have been using that same brand of trackball since 1998 or so... My first one cost $75... and it is still in service at my Dad's house... His server (somehow) still manages to have a PS/2 port, lol.

3D mouse? I played with one at PAX the first year. It was interesting but not something I'd use.
