Long time friend and fellow Microsoft MVP, Steven Hughes takes the Dragon for a spin. Unless you have been living under a rock, you will notice that there is a huge give away going on right now that includes this laptop. Well, Steve has taken his and given it a thorough spin and provides us all with an killer review of this killer laptop. Well, is it really a laptop? The damn thing is huge, I think I would rather call it a mobile desktop. It’s also more powerful than my Dell XPS desktop.

OK besides gaming, movie watching, web browsing and running office applications. This laptop can do a pretty good job as a nice rendering workstation for 3D Studio and Maya with no problems. It also makes a pretty good programmer’s coding computer. I installed Visual Studio 2008 and compiled some code that I know would take a while and it flew through those computations like a hot knife through butter. This is really the fastest laptop I have every used and can be seriously be used for both work and play as true desktop replacement. If you are looking for a desktop replacement with a large screen and need portability the HP HDX Dragon is for you.

If you’d like to check out the entire review, head over to Boston Pocket PC. Steve has more photos than you can shake a stick at and a wonderful review for you.
