    Starting prices:

    M14 @ 1199.00
    M17 @ 1499.00
    M18 @ 2099.00

    And I agree. I rarely stay up for these live streams, but I saw it pop across my facebook feed, so I figured I'd tune in. Not great, but then again how exciting can they make it? I think they did the best they could with what they had.

    +1 for the Flynn Lives shirt.

    So far, I do not really like the build/look of them, but over time I may be convinced as real reviews/looks start to trickle in.

    Its a shame only the 18" has a non TN (PLS) screen. Really missed the mark on this I would have loved the PLS screen on the 17" it would have made up for the ugliness of the system. The 18" only has 6 cell 69 Wh battery as well. Really disappointed I put off buying a system for this announcement.
