    Does anyone know the screen dimensions including the area AROUND the screen? I got an 11.6" screen protector but I'd like to cover the ALIENWARE logo as well. I probably won't cover the webcam since it has a mic there so maybe.. excluding the webcam but covering the left+right area+ the ALIENWARE logo. I don't have any rulers or tape measures at me home.. >_<

    Oh sorry, I didn't see that part of your post. I'll measure later. I got those measurements above from Alienware's site.

    The whole display lid is 28.5cm x 20.5cm.

    The actual screen (the part covered in transparent plastic, mic area included) is approximately 28.2cm x 19.2cm.

    19.2cm is up and down, right? so if I wanted to cover most of it except the mic part, I could just lower it one inch making it 16.8? I found a 12.4 widescreen protector (261mm x162mm) so I think I'll get that one. Thankies!! =]
