There was a guy on the Garage Sales board that said the Pandora's Box is haram to keep in your house.
I'm a Muslim and I thought that was "whaaaaaaaaaaat". |

Product of both the current education system, and government scare tactics of "if it is obscure and vague, consider it haram straight away", same case with those Muslims who avoid dogs like a plague just because their teacher say it is haram. IT is not, it just requires you to purify yourself through ablution and you can touch dogs, pigs or other haram things as long as you know to cleanse yourself when the time for prayers comes.

I agree. That's what I've been trying to tell every freakin' body, no one seems to want to be open minded AT ALL.
But let's not touch on such sensitive matters, back to Alienware. My M15x BSoD'd on me twice. Once when I tried loading my old save file on Fallout 3(but it worked after that), another when I plugged in my Death Adder at work(again, worked after that). Alienware, I are disappoint |

sorta off-topic but just got myself an Orochi today. always been a big fan of Logitech mices (was using a VX Nano for nearly 2 years) and have been contemplating about getting this or the G9x (40 bucks cheaper, original version of the TactX mouse, higher dpi settings, adjustable weight & grip) but opted for Orochi due to the wireless feature. well, been reading alot about Razer's bad build quality lately. do hope i won't see the rubber peeling off and the buttons malfunctioning after 6 months or this will be my first and last ever Razer.

QUOTE(Mr.Docter @ Mar 23 2010, 10:23 PM) if you can resist Alienware brand and its looks, Asus is the choice. If the mousepad is the same hard-type pad I've gotten with my M15X, then it is your no-name brand only with an alienhead logo. Razer gaming mats lie Kabuto or Goliathus provides smooth gliding surfaces that responds ultra-quick to mouse movements. Pair this with a good Razer high dpi mouse like Orochi or Mamba, and you have a combination that moves the mouse cursor at the slightest touch, and tracks accurate. Standard entry-level mouse on standard mousepad, require larger wrist movement to simulate the same amount of cursor movement, and will never be as accurate as higher dpi mice.but personally if i have to choose between Asus and M11x, Asus will get my vote err noob question here. is there any massive differents between Alienware mousepad (the one that came with the accessory box) and more expensive mousepad? |

But, if you want to compare M11X with other laptops, of course it will lose. But amongst most 12" netbooks, M11X is a GOD. hehe M11X is special because its portable gaming. the keyword is portable. |

QUOTE(Mr.Docter @ Mar 23 2010, 11:15 PM) oh thanks for the info! It'll take time to get used to though. My Mamba on Kabuto at 5600dpi is like oil on water, too slick and moves too much under the slightest touch. I had to drop the dpi to 3000 to get a more comfortable feel. However, if you have larger screens, larger dpi settings will benefit from it in such that you dont have to keep dragging the mouse over to reach one side of the screen from the other. Like your trackpad, you had to drag your finger on it to the edge, then remove finger and then continue that dragging motion to bring the mouse cursor to a corner, for example. With large dpi setting on a capable mouse, that cursor movement can be achieve with a single drag.never spending my dime on mousepad before this. and after reading your opinion, i really want to change my no-name-brand-with-Alienware-logo mousepad |
