hmmm maybe if I can get off of unemployment I will get one of these- the low end actually have some decent specs- considering I do live music w/my laptop the backlit keyboard and trackpad actually make a lot of sense for me
if i'm going to spend that much on a laptop, it better be solid state, and less than 1/2 in thick. i guess you still haven't talked me away from my mac
Um, that was a pretty graphic double entendre Dale. I hope you weren't violated in anyway. But if you were, I sure hope you got yourself a kickin' new laptop!
Awesome! They fixed the one thing I was sadface about by including a free upgrade coupon for Windows 7 with your purchase! Totally wasn't worth it without that. ;)
Then again, I can't decide between this and a sweet tablet.

My friend has one of these - the thing is obscene. It is a heavy large piece of machinery and the power brick is XBOX 360 sized providing ~300W of power. If I had the disposable income, I'd buy one of these, it's a complete desktop replacement.
The M17's a powerful as hell laptop that's for sure. Trouble with gaming laptops is that you can't upgrade them. As sweet as the M17 is it'll be outdated very soon by something else. So I just don't think that the price tag is worth it. If gaming is what you want then you're better off getting an equally powerful desktop for much less.
I picked up an MSI GX620 recently for $800 that I -really- like a lot. It runs Crysis, Empire Total War, and Armed Assault 2 at max graphics (which, as far as I know, are the most demanding games out there right now) but all I really care about is its ability to run StarCraft 2.
Course I use it for a lot of other stuff besides gaming.
$1500+ is pretty damn steep for a laptop that can't be upgraded. If you really want something just for gaming then a desktop is the way to go. That's just my two cents!

Fuck Alienware...I bought a laptop from them, and it fried after a year of normal use. When I tried to get it fixed, they sent me to some shitty company that screwed it up even more. Ever since Dell acquired them, the quality and customer service has been shite.
Screw you, Alienware.
Screw you, Alienware.
Go ahead and buy this and waste about 600 dollars; just build a desktop! Gaming laptops are fail imo.
My god... I was one of those. If only for the fact that it would make LAN parties so much easier to deal with.
It looks nice aesthetically yet there is a better laptop out there.
The EUROCOM D900F Panther has an Intel i7 and a nvidia 1 gig geforce 280. Soo...I'd rather have that. =P

Cool laptop, now for more important things. Are you gonna let that guy conquer your ass? Why was this taken down and then reposted?
If you want the full gaming experience, you WILL buy a desktop, why compromise your pleasure with a laptop?
Gaming Laptops are a joke, things run hot as hell and still have to clock down to keep from overheating. FAIL.
It was noted that the m17x can't be upgraded. I respectively disagree. Outside of the processor, everything else can be swapped out by a savvy user or professional. That being said, I highly recommend placing your investment in the Core 2 Quad EXTREME in order to future proof this baby as best as possible. It's power in excess in the current software market, and will only be further utilized as time goes on...it gives the rig some solid legs for the future. It's quite a machine.
Cheers.
