A quick google search for its specs reveal that it has some Core 2 Duo processor. Yay!

Hmm. My old XPS M1210 weighs in at about 4.5 lb and it's too heavy to swing around in one hand (it's also too thick). I'd like to get my hands on this to see how it compares.]]>Jan 7th 2010 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/Jan 8th 2010 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/

Small port at the front right by the SD slot is Firewire...

Rear "ports" by power input are cooling vents.

The USB port by the VGA port that has a lightning bolt in the Engadget gallery doesn't have a lightning bolt in the Alienware gallery. Hm...]]>Jan 7th 2010 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/
Also, why the SU7300? Couldn't they put one of the i7 CULVs like the 620UM or 640UM, or even the Core i5 520UM? It seems like all of these would be a better choice than the SU7300 and would be about the same price (maybe?) from what I can tell.]]>Jan 7th 2010 10:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/Jan 7th 2010 1:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alienware-m11x-hands-on/

maybe it's running an i3, or i5, undeclocked to some extent?
