Sega Note PC

[radiofloyd]

Sega fans...no choice but to import.

It's not quite the return to hardware production that some Sega loyalists may be hoping for, but Sega's new line of retro console-themed laptops are expensive and doomed to obsolescence, so it's kind of the same thing.

Manufactured in conjunction with Japanese retailer Enterbrain, the Sega Note PC laptops come in four styles: Generic Sega, Mega Drive, Sega Saturn and Dreamcast. Your choice of style can be ordered in one of four hardware configurations, with ascending prices ranging from ¥99,750 ($1075.47) to ¥194,250 ($2094.35). The base model comes equipped with the 64-bit version of Windows 8, a 1920x1080 display, 4 gigs of RAM and a 500 gig HD, all powered by a Pentium 2020M processor, according to our friends at Engadget.

It's kind of a lot of money for not a lot of computer, but each laptop is packed with Sega-branded Windows 8 themes, replete with custom system sounds. Shipment is expected to begin in June for those who either live in Japan or are brave enough to import.

I would love to have the Sega Saturn themed one, but it comes installed with Lamedows 8. Too bad it's not offered with a Sega-branded version of Ubuntu.

R.I.P Sega Saturn. You were the best!!

I'm pretty sure you could get something similar printed for a regular laptop.

I always knew you were alright

We should form a secret society, we could use the Sega Saturn's initials, then no one would mess with us

Can the clubs anthem be Werewolf Women of the S.S. (Sega Saturn) by Rob Zombie? If so I'm in!!

Also, new recruits should have to swear allegiance to the club with their right hand on a copy of Dragon Force.
