    so after many, many repairs i am finally returning my m15x for a refund. The computer is completely unreliable. since its been about 6 months with this computer i had to talk to the supervisor so i can get a refund, im just waiting for the call to complete the transaction.

    anyways i have a new computer i want to buy after i recieve my refund which is the HP HDX16T, what do you think?, if not anyone got suggestions?

    the hdx16 is pretty weak due to its mid-range videocard.

    Hahahah :)

    The 9800GT = the 8800GTX. Sorry to kill your fun but the cards are pretty much the same.

    That's crap that they wouldn't give you a refund. Isn't their policy to allow refunds if repairs aren't fixing your problems? You should have fought it.

    you get the new one, will probably still have problems- you return that and you get your money back, all vendors are given a change to fix things, 3 strikes you're out
