It's good to do some separate research on the Clevo as well. If you want something comparable to the Bonobo Extreme, but cheaper -- consider the Clevo W370ST. It's similarly specced to the Bonobo Exteme (but without the backlit keyboard and a couple o' other things.)
I've found the Clevo W370ST being sold in two places:
* AVADirect: https://www.avadirect.com/gaming-laptop-configurator.asp?PRI...
* Sager: http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np7370-clevo-w370st-p-5841.html
Sager offers more customization, for things like cooling and stuff (esp. important on a machine like this - which according to reviews tends to get very hot).
Also, here are some reviews of Clevos:
* In-depth (European) review of a Clevo model. See the section on the display: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Schenker-XMG-A523-Clevo-...
* See the 3rd comment here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1415091/im-thinking-about-buying-...

If you are concerned about the Clevo's Matte display not being good -- there's a Toshiba Qosmio X70 which is specced very similarly but has a "TruBrite" display. I don't know how good that is, but maybe it's better.
The Qosmio X70-ABT2G22 Laptop: http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/cdetland.to?poid=2000098...
The cooling is probably also more well-honed on the Qosmio (just speculating coz "Toshiba" is a well-known brand), so you might not have to spend extra on upgrading the cooling as you might have to do with the Sager/Clevo.
I sit on my couch with my laptop plugged in all the time. Am I doing it wrong?
I travel between countries a lot, and I can see myself doing that more for the near future. Being able to have just one machine -- rather a powerful desktop workstation and an ultraportable (like the MBA), is one reason I've been considering getting a desktop replacement laptop.
You get to take you work with you, anywhere. It's the alternative I've been considering, if I choose not to go for an MBA.
