    Hi Clean
    the majority of complaints over the last 2 months have been directed at the m15x but lately things seem to be getting back to normal so i think you ordered at the right time.
    as your header says, almost in the club. i will be tomorrow :)

    Technically you are in the "club" already. lol. Once you place the order you are an AW owner. :)

    Congrats on the purchase and enjoy your m15x. The past is gone, only the present matters now. ;)

    Hey man the M9750 is a great laptop. First of all, the 1920x1200 screen is one of the best screens that you will see on the laptop. Mine is flawless and when I switch from my desktop to my laptop I forget how beautiful the screen is.

    You won't be disappointed. Make sure to follow my SLi guide if you need to upgrade your drivers or anything.
