PROS:- Great construction. The overall build quality is excellent. Is it too heavy? Not to me. This is not an ultrabook; nor is it supposed to be. The brushed aluminum is not only beautiful, but it's also essentially FINGERPRINT-PROOF! As is the palm rest- Trackpad is spacious, with nice accents- Speaker system is top notch, loud, distortion-free and even pleasantly bassy (due to the subwoofer)- SteelSeries keyboard is well-sized, has solid feedback and is above average in quality- Keyboard has nice backlighting which is fully customizable by using the onboard KLM software- Win8 is pre-loaded onto the spacious SSD, which makes OS functions and bootup lightning fast- Gold-plated audio jacks make it a breeze to connect this bad boy to external speaker systems- Fairly quiet to my ears- The backpack and headset bonus items are a combined value of just under $200, and are both high quality extras- Gaming performance is as good as it gets, as of this writing- The wireless module (Killer Wireless) comes with some pretty wicked software. According to some demonstrations on YouTube (which seem legit), it provides better and more consistent latency than competitorsNEUTRAL:- The display (which thanks to MSI's engineering, can be easily swapped out by the user if you prefer a different configuration) has a slight grainy texture to it when viewing solid colors under certain conditions. However, it's big, fairly bright, and glare-free- Left-side Windows key has been removed (there's still one on the right) in order to avoid accidents while gaming. Thus, if you used that key a lot, you won't have it (though you can always map out alternate shortcuts).CONS:- Windows 8 UI blows for desktop users, but this is easily remedied by third-party software, and the OS is speedy and does have some improvements- Though it has 3 USB 3.0 ports, they're all on the left side (with 2 USB 2.0 on the right). No big deal though.CONCLUSION:This thing flies, is quality construction, and looks awesome. No, it isn't too big. It's the perfect size for its purpose. It feels very solid and appropriately weighted when carried (but again, I'm not after ultraportability; this is a desktop replacement). Feels good when used on my lap too. I had to use MSI customer service due to a minor issue, and they were extremely responsive and helpful, which is a good sign. I've not used the Alienware, Asus, or any other competitor, but honestly, I don't need to. My expectations were pretty high and this laptop exceeded them.

This is a beast of a machine. Runs smooth and quiet. Windows 8 tolerable but I'm not a fan, that would be my only complaint.
