The Acer Predator 21 X is the most ridiculous gaming laptop ever conceived. Considering it costs $8,999, it had better be. (UK and Australian pricing and availability weren’t announced, but the exorbitant 9,999 euro European price converts to £8,520 or AU$14,540.)

Not only is it the first laptop with a curved screen (a ginormous 21-inch display at that), the rig itself is more powerful than our CNET Future-Proof VR Gaming Desktop. Weighing 19.4 pounds (8.8 kilograms), it’s probably as heavy, too.
