Originally paid R36k for it from Wootware in May 2015. You can connect 4 x external screens and use them in extended desktop mode along with the main laptop screen. So you can have 5 different screens in total, each showing its own app (see the pics) without any external docks or adaptors/convertors required. All 4 screens connected directly to the laptop.

Marvelous for productivity and multi-tasking and monitoring multiple systems. Just great for anyone working in the IT field. Battery life sucks, as expected from a high performance laptop like this, and used in the manner that I use it. Gives me about 1 hour when at my desk hooked up to everything on a normal working day (5 screens, Bluetooth headset, USB fingerprint reader, Logitech cordless Mouse dongle, WiFi, Ethernet, full screen brightness, etc). Will give about 2 hours standalone. This is in high-performance mode power settings. I never bothered trying to tweak the power settings to get better battery life, as my use case was never really for mobility. The original battery died about but was replaced with an original Gigabyte battery in Oct 2018. The replacement battery is still good to this day.

I see there's new requirements on the template for battery health. Will get the stats tomorrow and then update my post.
 
Added battery info. Also updated SSD info. It's actually 250GB instead of 500GB.
