    I purchased my M15x in December 2010, I immediately upgraded it with a 920xm and an Intel SSD (see sig). I have recently put 8gb of RAM in to replace the 4gb it came with.

    I've just installed Rage. I can't see how this game could run any better, it's silky smooth frame rate means I can concentrate on the game, not tweaking the settings.

    For a laptop that was purchased years ago, and with warranty still in place until December 2014, I can say that on this occasion buying a quality product and spending a bit extra really has paid off.

    I regularly clean it and polish the screen, and it still looks new. My customers always comment on how impressive it looks.

    I love my M15x.

    I've got to second this, still loving my m15 after 2yrs and even though im looking at upgrading the graphics in mine to sell it on and go for the m18 I still don't really want to sell it.

    Other than an annoying keyboard lag problem I often get. No fix unfortunately other than windows reinstall, I also am happy with this machine!
