    it is, it has the new stealth design in mind.

    imagine a M17x front on a desktop...... It does look good

    I think mentioning the words "M17X" and "refresh" is pure ludicrous.

    a desktop and a M15X refresh is definitely there and probably 2 types of desktops as Moo says.

    gunna be fun seeing what emerges.

    *imagining* Wow all its missing is a jet engine and now its a Lamborghini airliner :D . Alienware's design tech definitely know how to make a product look incredible.

    heck yah! I love the new design of the M17x, sleek enough to say "I have class"....the M17 looks a bit too much like a toy....

    I'm guessing they'd implement i7 with the M17x on the 2nd gen procs.

    Right now it seems they're concentrating on the two desktops and the M15x, as reported.

    Wonder if there will be the characteristic AW skullcap option of if they are killing that. Would be a shame, I really like it and missed it on the M17x although it still looks awesome

    yeah the skullcap is so Alienware!

    I suspect the fact that it was not available on the M17X means Dell/Alienware are probably trying to move away from that look now.....if Im correct then that is a shame.

    I personally like the skull cap design too however not a big fan of the all silver like the m15x has, I much prefer the rubberized grips on my skull cap

    I'm a fan of the Skullcap design...

    The fact that in Europe they stopped to sell Skullcap M17 made me opt for a possible Clevo for the next NB change (in October)...let's only see if the design and price of the new M15X will change my mind back to Alienware again...

    Sorry for this English, but I just woke up... :(
