Razer's bold gaming-laptop debut is undeniably thin: at 0.88 inch, it's practically ultrabook -sized. From all angles, it resembles a matte-black metal 17-inch MacBook Pro fused with the design sensibility of an Alienware laptop. It's nearly the same weight as a 17-inch MacBook Pro, too, at 6.5 pounds.
