And of course the big question with any portable device is battery life. I guess we can safely assume this would be minimal given the specs (and no mention of a high capacity battery as standard) $4700 is a lot of money for something to play games on when it will only run for an hour and a half. You could buy a reasonable laptop with better battery life AND a desktop to game on at home for this money

Review Score 6 out of 6

Its longlife 24-hour battery makes it significantly less portable, but this laptop is classy in every sense of the word.

As one of Australia's few locally designed netbooks, the Kogan Agora lives up to some lofty netbook ideals, but it’s sadly ho-hum in too many aspects to be seen as a real netbook contender.
