hi all im new in this thread and im super noob hope u all dun mind

im considering buying m15x or m17x but just have a few questions...

1. does m15x/m17x have a blu-ray writer/ reader?

2. what the difference for a 9 cell primary battery(m17x) over 6 cell primary battery(m15x)? is it 9 cell last longer?

3. for the m17x r3, what is "CrossFireX Dual 1GB GDDR5 ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870"? Does it mean that in future i can add in another Radeon HD 5870 to cross fire with the current one? how much roughly does another Radeon HD 5870 cost?

4. what is alienhead 3D? is this 3D vision?

thx....
