Correct me if I am wrong, but I think when you are on battery power, you can only have one gpu running, even if you are in an sli configuration.

This is true, but at the moment, I don't think there is any way to overclock the 750m. (please correct me if I am wrong) But of course the 750ms have only been out for so long. So I suppose it won't affect the performance that much until an overclocking tool does come out for the 750m.

In my opinion, the only thing that is bad about windows 8 is the metro interface. Everything else seems to be faster, including boot times and many other operations. The thing is, the metro interface is easily replaced with applications. There are free versions and paid versions that will make the windows button act exactly the same as in windows 7. And before you switch, you can just try win8 out, and if you really don't like it (even after changing the metro interface) you can always switch back. And btw, some people say that they love the new metro interface. Even though I could not agree.

Damn how fast is your internet? But do you really need the extra 5MB/s? Anyways, thanks for the suggestion. I might look into this after my y500 arrives .

Do you have any idea about the quality in the keyboard cover? I am looking for one atm.

You said that there is currently no support for the 750m. Are there any plans in the future to support them? And if so, is there an approximate date we can expect it by?

I think that is only because you put a matte screen protector on. A matte screen won't have this issue to that degree. But yes, glossy screens are supposed to have better contrast in colours.

I would have to agree with this, but mind you that the haswell upgrade would make a significant difference for a device like the surface.

Hey everyone! I'm mletemps. I do have a desktop, but for some reason, I prefer the mobile experience. (It probably has to do with the portability) I was hoping that my desktop could crank out all games max settings (I built it 2 years ago, but turns out it doesn't play all games in max settings from games that come out nowadays) It is still a beasty machine, but the lenovo y500 really appealed to me. So I ordered the lenovo y500 i7 ivy with 750m sli. I am waiting for it to ship and am really excited. It should be here in 3 weeks.
