    It appears GTX 460M is no longer available to order. GTX 560M replaces it. Is it a big difference?

    Probably not a huge difference, no. The 560M is definitely better though.

    Are you talking about the UK Alienware website? We here in the US are still waiting for the 560m I think.

    It's in the USA site. The upgrade to the GTX 580m is still $500 dollars more
