    Alienware, please make an Alienware M13X with the following main features.

    1. i3 or i5 CPU
    2. Same graphic card as the M11X but with Optimus
    3. Great 13" display
    4. USB 3.0 with esata output
    5. Super quiet fans
    6. DVD drive option or use the space for a second hard drive.
    7. Good battery life.

    Creating a laptop like this would sell like hot cakes (i.e...would definitely be as popular like the m11x).

    *sigh* Perfectionist?... :(

    This subject was already discussed and went south pretty badly. Most of the threads were pulled because they became flame wars. Thus the reason there are not many if you used the search function.

    I would pay a premium for the ops ideal laptop. I love my m11x but it doesnt cut it for some of my apps/games. Hence I have bought a m15x to take on those tasks.

    If they made an m13x with the above specs I could have a 1 fits all laptop.
    The closest to it is acer 3820tg or sony z11 but I wont touch these because:
    Acer 3820tg: terrible keyboard, terrible screens and its acer!
    Sony Z11: expensive, only a 330m, needs drivers issued by sony (which never get updated) and battery drain issues.

    I think it will be very unlikely alienware will release a m13x soon. They just released the m11x, and the dell studio xps 13 disapeared for quite a while now in Belgium. Maybe a new sxps 13 will be released soon? It would suit me more than a toy-looking alienware laptop which begs to be stolen in the library.

    An M13x would have no place in AW's current lineup. There is room to strech the current LCD which would probably add an inch while keeping the current form factor.

    I doubt also that they would make this as the M11X seems to be selling very very well. God Bless :)
