    I am trying to find out if there is a way to buy to the alienware cloth that ships with the R3. My laptop was ordered through the outlet and did not ship with one. I currently have a nice backpack for my M17X but the fit is snug and the zippers on the top of the bag are starting to lightly rub away at the corners of the laptops finish. I purchased the thinnest laptop sleeve I can find thinking this would help solve the problem but unfortunately the laptop + sleeve = too bulky for the backpacks zippers to close. I figure the alienware cloth would be the best solution as it would protect the finish of the laptop and the backpack would provide the padding. I have tried contacting Dell about purchasing one however they act like I am speaking a foreign language. I have also periodically searched ebay but have only come up with ones for the M15X. Anyone know of a place to pick one up? Should I keep trying through Dell?

    I too have tried to get some extra ones, for my m18x and m17x. Sorry to say the only ones I have found were the m15x on ebay. You might find someone on here willing to sell one as a lot of people end up not using them. Can only hope.. ;)

    Sup guys. I bought mine for the R2 from this guy. I see he's sold them all, but it might be worth to send him a message - he might be able to get more.
    Hope it helps
