    So if we count in 3's. M11x, M14x, M17x...M20x?! Something that can rival the Clevo x7200?

    I wonder what's the back story regarding the model sizes. I mean, why a M14x instead of M13x? What is their reasoning?

    Good point! The new one will probably be out of my price range right off the bat anyway.

    I think I will keep it; with the coupons I found I got a really good deal on the Core i7 version. Plus it's just so darn cute! :)

    I just realized that the "M15x" next to it doesn't have a textured bit at the bottom of the lid but all the retail M15x's do. Still going with my theory that it is an unreleased M17x R3 prototype. As for the back story of the new numbering. Yeah they are all 3 apart. 11+3=14+3=17

    That's correct.

    Nothing constructive has come out of this thread so it is closed. Let's avoid speculation . . . it wastes everyone's time. When real information is available on a new Alienware notebook (as in, from a reputable source or Alienware/Dell directly (and more than a support site reference)), then you can post.
