I'd go for the ALienware over the Studio XPS Anyday!!!
i HAVE BEEN Eyeing the XPS Studio for quite a while and even other models, till I laid my eyes on the Alienware M15x. tHERE was No Looking back.... Specswise and GPU And design wise and exclusivity wise!!!

Not DEAD AS DEAD. Just there is no screen. BLANK. Maybe overheat because I doesn't have aircond & cooling pad at home.
Like I've told uncle previously.... I very-very seldom post. (I'm not a talkative type  )
Stealth mode doesn't run on battery. I don't know what it does also. But you can set the system how much it consume when on adapter & battery. example like the brightness level & display setting.

Yeah,
I'm gonna use the TACTX First and see how it goes. I don't normally use wired mouse cos I have the cable clutter at my table.

By the way, My M15x has arrived. And the outter box is in good condition so kudos to the delivery man for being gentle on it

Will post pics later.

I don't have discount coupon. And I need to charge for the credit card currency exchange rate bro. Haha, and also pos laju. Nvm, i'm just helping if anyone wants it urgently and can't get it. Ok, back to AW now.
Anyone interested with the Orion bag?

Seems like no one really wants it. haha

Well I did
Now just getting the programs sorted

Patience bro. As you can see, we're all getting it roughly the same time..
I only have Photos, no unboxing video unfortunately.... No lag with my browser. So far, only error message that came was during my first ALIEN-FX customization but everything has been smooth after than....

i did a full stress on 1cpu only, "1 CPU only", seems that our Core i7 720QM doesnt full blast to 2.8Ghz, below picture shown....

kEYPAD Laggin? You mean the touchpad?
The texture actually kinda nice to the touch for me. And it doesn't really bother me much when I just use it to browse the net...

To those yet to receive their lappie. Hope you guys get it A.S.A.P!!!!

my problem wth the battery took a different turn today...
Just thought I would try booting up with battery so I unplugged the AC Adapter and ON the Lappie. Upon seeing the Lappie start, I plugged in the AC right away. I waited for the ALIEN LOGO to pop up but it didn't yet I see the ALIEN HEAD Power button is processing stuff. My screen still remained blank when to my HORROR, I heard the Windows Startup sound which prompts you to key in password or facial recognition. MY SCREEN WAS NOT WORKING.

I Force shutdown and restarted 3 more times and no changes, screen still blank. I took out battery and used with only AC, and restarted 2 times only to be able to view the screen... Damn, 2 issues for me now dy. So sad.... CALLED DELL To report this to add to the battery Issue which they have yet to send an engineer to my house to do..... Sigh.....

yes, I encountered that. So I turn off the pc, let it restart, then run the BIOS check to see if BIOS updated and EC updated? Then RE-Run the BIOS Flash 2ND time, this time both went smoothly and update complete...

Thanks.... if Only I saw this earlier i would have saved myself some worries the other night....

      my alienware m15x is arrived

i had open up M15x before, there is no more slot for 2nd GC. change to GTX280M i can help u.
Wanna operate the M17x later

Congrats Bro. Do test out in PHOTOSHOP eg CS4 and see if u face the ENTER key problem or any other problems? I don't have PS yet so I can't try....
I'm wondering as well. The Engineer is yet to arrive at my house as initially arranged at  4pm, when he does, I will ask him about this issue about diff adapters as well.

You guys got your Lappie's with 1 partition on the HD like me? What did u do to partition it to 2 or 3 partitions? Partition Magic or something? Please advise as I have 2 programs and 1 game installed and I would like to know if I will lose everything should I partition now, before I proceed further and install stuff....

Done already. Emailed them. Very speedy response.

Yup. I wrote it together in the post with the pics. Engineer has no clue..... He brought a same 150w charger to my place...
