    Hi everyone,

    My M17x is etc 2 weeks and I just got the RTM version of Win7 Professional via MSDN. I'm looking forward to just format the Vista on the M17x when it arrives and just install the Win7 Pro so I don't have to go through the trouble of formatting when it's time to upgrade.

    I wanted to ask, how are the Alienware functions working with Win7 for all you RC/Beta testers out there? My main concerns are:
    (1) Does stealth mode work properly? (both graphics cards recognized and swappable)
    (2) Does Alien command centre and Alien FX work properly?
    (3) Any other compatibility issues that you have noticed.

    Thanks for the help everyone!
