    When customizing your Alienware m17 on the Alienware website before buying it, you get to choose one from three colors: Astral Blue, Fusion Red and Terra Green. Does it stay with that color forever or you can change it once you get it anytime you feel like doing so? Cause they let you choose one of them in the site even though they say "You'll be able to change the colors between Fusion Red, Astral Blue and Terra Green at the touch of a button."

    Is there any other difference between a Non-Illuminated Keyboard and an Illuminated one other than the colors thing?

    A non illuminated color will not light up, while the illuminated ones can light up and you can choose between those 3 colors that you mentioned.

    Yeah I know ... it was a bit confusing ... one thing to note though is the intensity of the lighting zones on the keyboard can be a little bit inconsistent in a lighted room ... but it becomes very nice in a dark room .. .enjoy
