    I entered my Service tag on the dell site to get some drivers, and I couldn't download anything because it said I have a"Alienware M11X R3" it looked like a M15X/M17X. I would give the link, but its my service tag :( . This HAS to be an error.

    What would you claim? That you woke up one morning, and your M11x R3 magically turned into an M11x R1/R2 because of manufacturer defect? :p
