Another reason would be the LAN party fanatics who just like to bring their killer gaming laptop instead of a Shuttle or dragging a full on gaming rig around. Or consider students whose only computer is a laptop, they'd probably like to be able to game on it...

Using a Core i7 820, 500Gb7200, 6Gb, WIn7U64, GTX240, FullHD. It cost a bomb however the XPS proved to be a good machine over three years and I do a lot of hi-res work. No gaming but need heavy travel and big CPU.

The 2/4Gb is in Single channel mode ! Order 4Gb or 8Gb (not from Dell whos prices for RAM exceed even Apples !)
The keyboard bounces a bit, trackpad is a bit sub-premium but usable.
For a 15" machine it has the same footprint as my old 17" XPS
It weighs more than my old XPS1710. Big sod !
Dell EU don't offer an SSD - get a life ! Now i have to prize my new machine open and fit an Indilinx based SSD you muppets.
Where's the Blueray option ? I had it on my 36 month old XPS1710 ?

Sounds bad right - Hell no. It is a stunner. You will have to prize it from my clammy dead hands if you want it. Stunning build quality, no bloatware, Intel ICH drivers already loaded, Loaded all my Kaspersky Office 2010, Adobe CS4, RMTS and SP and it is still hammering away without a drop in performance. Outstanding.

You could get the same P55 platform Core i7 820 from other vendors but if you are going to buy this now it will still be expensive and the metal chassis on this bad boy will allow you to keep it looking good for the three years it takes to pay for it. As long as you wipe off the fingerprints it attracts.

No overheating problems, fans not running up, ran Prime 95 without a glitch for 6 hours (fans came on slow then) and it seems smooth.

Nice work Alienware/Dell - its expensive, it MUST have SSD and BR but I have screwdrivers......and I rate it highly.]]>Jan 29th 2010 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/alienwares-core-i7-equipped-m15x-and-m17x-now-available-to-orde/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/alienwares-core-i7-equipped-m15x-and-m17x-now-available-to-orde/Jan 29th 2010 2:23PM
