That's a good question. I've been thinking of whether I should go with an ultraportable (with great battery life) or a super-powered desktop replacement (with 1-2 hours of battery life). Clevos seem to give the most bang for the buck (in terms of price/performance). system76 and Sager both sell rebranded Clevos. A model I've been thinking about is the Clevo W370ST. It's 17.3", has a 1080p matte screen and a bunch of other things. But I read that the Clevo/system76/Sager's screen quality is not particularly good. Also, one commentator on a thread complained about hard drive rattle (a case / build problem) and others about very loud fan noise while doing CPU-intensive stuff.
