    you could just compare the dimensions. im guessing the m15x will be a bit bigger. i only saw 1 video where a guy had a mac book air and a m15x. if you buy a m15x i dont really see a reason why you want to get a mac book.

    Ummm there's a big difference. I don't have pictures because I don't HAVE my macbookpro anymore... but the m15x is twice as thick and about 2-3 lbs heavier.

    If you are mostly looking for a smaller, thinner 15 inch, I would get the mac. However, it heats up TERRIBLY. If you want more power and speed, I would go with the alienware. I like my m15x a whole lot more than the macbookpro.

    Plus, you can't really play games on the macbookpro unless you put windows on it.

    Eh, why are you comparing them?

    They are totally different machines aren't they?

    The m15x is a gaming 15.4 notebook where the MBP will fit in and envelope and isn't a gaming notebook?

    Just my 2p (and slight confusion)

    don't do a comparison based on size, those are completely different when it comes to functionality.
