GammaTech sent along a new Durabook D15RP Laptop to be part of a little feature we’re brewing, but we thought we’d go ahead and give you a quick peek at the thing first.

Today we popped in at Clevo’s booth to snap a few shots of its mammoth M980NU. While the girth was impossible to not notice, the palm rest, keyboard and top control panel were downright ritzy.Powered by an Intel Core 2 Extreme X9100 3.06GHz processor, up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M graphic card with 1GB of RAM and a 320GB hard drive.

The MacBook Pro 17-inch Laptop base configuration (a not-super-cheap $2,799) is outfitted with a 2.66GHz CPU, 4GB of RAM, a 320GB hard drive, and the switchable NVIDIA GeForce 9400M / 9600M GT GPUs. The version we have came fully loaded with a 2.93GHz CPU, 8GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD, and (yes) an anti-glare display. Needless to say, performance wasn’t much of an issue — but the final cost ($4,899) might be a little extreme for most.

Acer’s N280-powered Aspire One D150 has already been reviewed, but considering that we’ve yet to have the pleasure of meeting, we took that very opportunity today while parked at the company’s CeBIT booth. A trio of colors were around for demoing, so we walked our camera around to tag all three. You know the critics think this machine’s a-okay, but does it live up to your demanding style standards?
