I have an older G73 and I am very happy with it.
It does have one quirk which I haven't been able to figure out though.
Everyone once in a while the sound card goes apeshit. I don't know if it's a driver issue or a hardware issue but the speakers just start making oddball screeching sounds and the only way I can get it to stop is to reboot the computer. It has done it 3 times since I owned it and two of those times were a week ago when I was creating a memorial video for a friends funeral.
Other than that, it's been a great gaming laptop.
