ASUS N53S Core i7-2630QM Sandy Bridge 15" notebook was on his test bench.  At 1366 x 768 the screen seems an odd resolution and the GTX540M is not in too many systems yet either.  He had some concerns with the overall sturdiness of the unit, there was a lot of flex around the keyboard as well as the optical drive, though the overall look was appealing. 

Check out the performance in his full review.

"There are a few rough edges. The display of the N53 is quite poor for a laptop of this price, and the squishy keyboard is a nasty oversight in a laptop with an otherwise luxurious finish. However, these problems are tolerable considering this laptop’s performance. The ASUS N53 is a hardware powerhouse; indeed, it’s a testament to the fact that computer processors – quick though they may be – still have significant room for improvement in the future, and those improvements will positively impact the quality of the computer you receive for your money."
