Unsure buyer!

Has anyone purchased the base model m15x and if so can u plz post ur comments and thoughts?

 

don't do it
for the same price I can get a laptop with

4x the ram
2x the hard drive
dvd burner
same graphics card that's a little faster
better resolution
better battery life
better weight
cheaper warranties
I thought about the base too, it's not worth it dont do it dont dont it will suck you in to the evil pit of no return

 

I don't recommend going with the base m15x it is way overpriced. You might want to take a look at the Dell XPS m1530. You get better specs at lower cost. The only advantage the base m15x has over the m1530 is that it's upgradable.

 

dony do it

 

I agree, is too bulky for a 8600. You can get a true 15" portable for less money same specs.

PS Couldn't make out this one though:

 

the base m15x is definitley not worth it. at least get a 8700 if you are getting a m15x. i would definitley recommend the m1530 if you are getting a 8600. the only thing that you should watch out for if you are getting the m1530 is if you get a samsung screen.

 

what i ment was the t61p's graphics card the 570 is about the 8600 but it has faster clocks

 

Alienware gives you the 8600 GT which should be a bit better for games and such but still, m15x shouldn't be bought with the 8600, is just to big and heavy if you're not going 8800 (in my opinion). And if you have money to get cool keyboar, lights and stuff just ditch those and upgrade the graphic card .

 

NO the t61p's 256mb graphics card, the 570, is the 8600g but with faster clocks

 

Hmm tried to find that one but is same clocks on both cards 475/700 and same memory.

 

didn't you just get a credit for your 9750 and bought an m15x? I swore i just read that the other day...

 

There's plenty of threads around here on the m15x, please go read them and search the forums before you post next time, thanks.
