Established in 1996, Alienware assembles high performance desktops, notebooks, and workstations. According to employees, the Alienware name was chosen because of the founders' fondness for the hit television series The X-Files, hence the theme to their products, with names such as Area-51, Hangar18, m15x, and Aurora.[4] Alienware was originally established to tap a niche in the high performance game market, which back then was not on the radar of the major PC manufacturers such as Dell. Since high-end hardware was not widely distributed, the company's founders formed an OEM which sold personal computers with the highest performing hardware and settings according to benchmarks[citation needed]. The company products are also differentiated by their science-fiction based designs.
1) Customized nameplates are not available for us in the Asia Pacific region 2) The price for each system in Dell.com.my is not the final price. It is possible to get additional 4% -5% of rebate or even freebies if you consult the Sales Assistant before placing your orders

Hey guys, I just receive a international call today from dell.. The guy only asking whether the address is correct or not and ask for my home number.. other than that, he cant told me the estimate delivery date ..
I check my status order now, is still in order receive .. So this call is just to confirm the address? They going to send the product straight to my house from oversea?
The number's from China? What bout their Penang office? I only received phone calls from Penang back then, to tell me that the order is coming. For my laptop and my headset, twice also from Penang. lol
SO, this means that everyone will receive their m11x on the same date. i mean for those who pre-oredered it. correct me if im wrong. those who ordered as early as 1st of feb will also receive it at the same date for those ordered later.
and one more thing, they said once the part arrive in dell malaysia & singapore. what does that mean?? gonna build in malaysia and singapore? or the part basically means the whole laptop?
Yeap. Same as my M15x back then. SG and MY will be the same region and the stock will most likely be the same. They might not have ALL the parts in our region for now, but it will come. It's how it works.
okay.. thanks yea ^^ so i just have to wait till mid of march then. hehez.. hows ur m15x? whats ur specs again?
Just check the status from time to time. Trust them, they will do their job. My first batch of M15x was slow, but those ordered after me, will get in 8-10 days instead of mine almost 20 days.

So far so good! Yea I know we read alot about hardware defects and failure but so far, i'm good!
Check this out about the windows comparison. It has slightly more features and powerful i would say. er.. maybe powerful is the wrong word, but ah.. nvm
i wan highest settings of coz hehe.. or at least high.. hehe btw, screemo, ur m15x gets heat up very fast? i scare m11x will heat up so high temperature after playing game. so scary >.<
really turns me off when a laptop gets heat up soo easily when playing games like cod mw2. tats wat happened to my previous benq s57b. gpu and cpu very nice, but heat up to 70 degree.
You can hear the cooling fans firing up when you push the GPU. as long as there's no obstruction at the cooling vents, the machine won't get very hot. A lil warm i would say. Get a full time table fan blowing the back of the machine, then you're good to go!
tht is why...slow down be patient...it will arrive eventually....i waited 1 and a half months too to get my m17x. if i can wait this long so can u. summore whn my m17x was delivered i cant even get it instantly coz it was in canada n i was in mys for summer break. so tht means i waited a total of 3 months before i got it. so stop b**chin them n let them do their job eventhough i know they are a pain in the ass sometimes
