TAKING ADVANTAGE of the green team’s recently announced 8800 SLI graphics card for notebooks, Rock has been beavering away to create a notebook that not only has dual-chip graphics, but a quad-core processor. Yes, the chassis is an absolutely behemoth and ugly as sin, saved only by its glossy black stylings. There’s no Penryn - this is old-school 65nm quad core, no less.

In fact, its an X6800 desktop chip, which harks back to the old Pentium 4 laptops of old. Buyers can also have the system outfitted with a pair of 500GB drives for a total of 1TB of storage. Optical duties are handled by an HD-DVD drive. The Rock Xtreme SL8, as it will be called, will be available in late February for between £2500 and £3000. If you’ve got the backbone to match your wallet size, then we wish you the utmost enjoyment. And we mean actual physical backbone - you’re going to need it to haul this thing anywhere.
