Anyone playing on a laptop at max settings?

[ThisWillNotStand]

I didn't make this in the computer forums (well, I made one similar), because I thought I'd get a lot more input from here. I'm just wondering if anyone is playing GW2 at max settings on their laptop with 40+ fps, and if you are, what graphics card are you using, and what resolution? (whether external monitor or laptop screen)

I am playing on a laptop but definitely not at max, my fiancee might though (He just got his like a month ago). I'll check the settings he plays at when I get home tonight.

I currently play on a MSI laptop.

Specs are:

i7 2630QM 2.0 ghz
nVidia GTX 570M 1.5gb
16gb RAM DDRIII
1920x1080p laptop monitor.

All settings are on high except shadows.

70-80 fps in the world
30-35 fps in large events

I play on High settings (not Ultra) on everything with no Vertical Sync and get 56 fps with this system that has two nVidia 560m's in SLI. The system is quite heavy for a laptop. I use it at home instead of traveling because of its weight. You can buy a laptop with two nVidia 580m's now. I am using a resolution of 1920x1080 with output to a 27 inch monitor through a DVI connector.
