It was intended to sarcastically assert that a professional gamer is a job , and earns a great income. I don't take the high road; when I see a cockroach approaching me, I squash it.

I am a police officer. I actually enjoy my job, however I doubt you would see any interest in protecting and serving rather than playing video games for a living. Do what you got to do I suppose.

Guys. Stop arguing. The point has been made that gaming is a profession. And the GT650M SLI is just under the GT675M, and above the GT670M. For a price point perspective, the Lenovo is amazing.
