I have a g73jh, don't hold your breath for Asus support. The community is great and found their own drivers and workaround for almost every issue while Asus did nothing.

Can anyone recommend a replacement screen for an MSI GT72? It's a 17.3" screen with I believe a 30 pin connector.
I was looking at getting an LG Philips LP173WF4-SPF1. Is that reasonably good? I'm having trouble finding places to purchase that model from though, both Amazon and Newegg don't carry the model. Why?

I'll be working on several large writing projects soon and was looking for a recommendation for a quality laptop. My main concern is the quality of the keyboard. Anyone have any suggestions?

Which one did you get - touch or non-touch? Why pull the trigger so close to a Skylake revamp? The XPS 15 skylake is weeks away with xps 13 sure to follow.

Which one then - non-touch FHD 1080p or the touch QHD+ 3200x1800? The difference in color and quality is supposed to profound under win10.

I should get it Wednesday. Chances are that I'll end up returning it and getting the 15" version with Skylake, assuming it has the tiny bezel like the 13" does.Faaaawk dude. I was ogling that for the longest time. Let us know how it is

Got the XPS 13 today. One can't appreciate the small size of this thing until you hold it in your hands. It's like holding an 11" laptop but having the 13" screen. The tiny screen border makes a huge difference. The screen is fantastic. I don't see anything wrong with it.
My only initial complaint is the keyboard backlighting. The number 7 key is like GONDOR CALLS FOR AID! The rest of the keys are fairly evenly lit, with a few here and there with different levels. This compares to my retina Macbook Pro that has perfect backlighting.
One of the first things it asked me was if I wanted to upgrade to Windows 10. I said yes and it immediately downloaded it and began the installation, which is what it's doing right now.

If you have a hardon for a 13" laptop, does that mean you'll be joining Jared in jail shortly?
What, too soon?
Looking for something reasonable to get me through the next 3-4 years. Mainly classwork, though I'd prefer not to be piloting a dinosaur that takes a full minute to load up my browser. $500-800 budget. Best performance I can get for the money. Everything except for OS is paid for. Best source?

My work laptop is an i7 Pro 3. It's okay, but the resolution is mighty high for such a small screen. I hate the very cheap-feeling keyboard. I lament it every time I need to type on it. The machine is fast and works well, but after trying the Dell XPS 13, to me, it's a no-brainer the Dell is the better machine. For some reason, the high rez on the XPS 13 was more manageable than on the Pro. Your needs may be different. I never tried Hearthstone on it.
