Happened upon the Taipei Game Show? No? Us neither, but Nicholas Khoo of 9eekonomics was, and we’re glad he made it. Spotted at the event was Gigabyte’s latest docking laptop, the M1405. On the go, there’s a 14-inch, 1366 x 768 resolution TFT LED, Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300, up to 4GB memory and 500GB storage, DVD, Windows 7, and graphics provided by an Intel GMA 4500MHD — attach that external GPU and you’ve got extra ports and GeForce GT220 with 1GB discrete memory.

It’s got a 6-cell battery, but you can add an addition 3-cell if you don’t mind ditching the disc drive. No prices or release date, but expect an even grander unveil next month at CeBIT. More pictures via the source link, video after the break.
