    I've got dual 260m's in my m17X R1 and came into some found money. Sadly my mad webskillz are letting me down and I'm not finding anywhere I can buy 280m's, short of ebay, where they are going for upwards of $600 and if I'd found that much money I'd be looking at eBaying the R1 and going with an R2.

    Don't they have to be out of another Alienware computer or bought directly from dell?

    Didn't know that, or think about it. Thanks.

    Guess that means I've got to track them down on the dell website.
