Design I’ve seen quite a few MSI laptops in my time, but never any like this. Swathed in one of Xotic PC’s custom wraps, the Dominator looks strange and yet familiar. Instead of the typical brushed-black-aluminum chassis with the red-and-white dragon emblem, there’s a playful assortment of red lines of varying thicknesses and gray and red triangles against a black backdrop.
