Love the whole Ripley chassis look, classy indeed (Personally didn't like the skullcap design). BTW, there's a proprietary command control included with every Alienware laptop, yes? Any chance you'll post screenshots of it? I've always love how things could be configured via a central command control, much like an advanced command center.

I totally love how Alienware tries to integrate Alien terms with their laptops, makes it sound sleek and looks more so too. The smart bay kicks ass too, portability and flexibility.

Lastly, do you plan on getting GTA 4? Would like to see some benchmarks on that.

Sweeet, especially with the AlienFX lighting system, that's something. BTW, about the chassis design, I got confused between the two, what I meant to say was that I prefer the skullcap, the one with the gills, instead the ripley, that looks bland.

A fan of Sid Meier I see..Well, I sometimes find myself and a bunch of buddies playing starcraft in a free-for-all. Love it even though years have passed.

Ah... was looking for a benchmark on a system like yours. Well, since you already have the console version, don't see the point in going through the trouble of getting the pc version, especially since many have been complaining about the poor porting (not that I actually experienced it hands-on) and the fact that you can't just pop it in and play. That's the beauty of console, yes?

Biometrics huh, fingerprint detection is one thing, facial recognition? Now that's rare around here. What's more, the lighting system is even far out, a backlit keyboard is impressive enough, but one that can be profiled to flicker accordingly? wow....just wow.. I've always visited Alienware's website to check out the laptops they're selling, but seriously, I'm thinking that their description do their gadgets no justice. That, or I missed out reading the details.

sigh... it's been a long time since I touched a console, was thinking of buying a next-gen platform, but I don't know if I'll make good use of it. Though, honestly? MGS 4 is probably reason enough for me to buy a PS3

I've heard about all the complaints, but I guess that there's surely a lemon in everything, never could be perfect, at least that's my thought. In fact, there's this one guy that returned his m15x because of some software problem, said guy was agitated, can't blame him though, I'm sure anyone who's paying a premium price for the laptop actually expect a premium quality assurance instead of just a quality check.
