    Wow,

    The "All Powerful" sit now contains an AP screen saver, wallpapers, and even poster prints.

    There is also the "making of the M17X" movie/clip.

    And there are more photos and a 360 view as well as some other cool stuff.

    Every time I look at the pictures of the new m17x, I want to buy one, lets see if I can afford the new m15x when it comes out, eventually. Hopefully It will have the same styling as the m17x.

    I have noticed in a few of the wallpapers and movies and stuff on the allpowerful website that there a red colored m17x, but I don't see it on the dell site. What gives, I think the silver and red chassis looks awesome.

    Honestly I didn't liked the laptop "looks" wise - it is powerful and maybe as they quote it "most powerful in the universe".

    The surveillance part of the site is amazing.

    All the flying alien heads are youtube videos probably with the keyword "alien" or "UFO"... and I think it's dynamically generated.

    Do they use Macs to design stuff? At Alienware? o_O

    I think they just used the aluminum design from macbooks. As in, they used aluminum, not that it looks like a macbook.

    Thats all I remember reading about somewhere, dont know if it has to do with macbooks in any way lol

    I'm having problems using the screensaver. The image is not in the centre of the screen, rather its at the bottom right, and I can see only the top left of the skull. Anyway to fix this?
    Here's what the swf looks like in Chrome (same in IE-8)

    Most likely you do not have a "Wide Screen" - it does not appear to be working good on wide screen... why did not they rested it on m15x???
