Well, i've taken the plunge...

congrats mate on your new arrival.

congrats OB, hope you have lots of fun with your new toy. oh and i hope you enjoy the mug at least as much as you enjoy the laptop itself

Thanks guys... I've now descovered the previously unknown example of "slow-Time" lol

This afternoon seems to be dragging alot.... Can't think why ha ha ha ha

I'll have to see what scores i can get, might get a higher score with tea, rather than coffee lol

Congratulation Whizzo, 1000 posts woo hoo

OB

 

Grats, OB! Enjoy that sexiness.

 

how much longer to go???

 

4:30PM EST. You better have pictures...

 

Seems like we're just as excited for OB's m17x as he is.

 

Morning guys, she's beautiful. I would never descride her as a "Laptop", deffinately a desktop replacement.

I have some pictures of the "unboxing" but, as yet i got opera running last night, still to set-up all of the other programs i use...

At the moment i only have Vista, Opera, Avira, A-Squared & Ad-Aware 2008 installed... Still to install Office and then all of my personal stuff.

I was playing with the new functions and getting the Creative sound software set-up. I nowq have 5.1 surround sound (",) and my Razer lachesis is amazing with the large screen, only have to move it a little to go across the screen...

I can post the pictures i have if you want but, i was going to do a review and add them then...

OB

 

Then, I await the review! Hopefully, the m17x meets your expectations.

 

It does, i've got a lot of work to do before it's fully "ready", graphics drivers, defraging, copying the 130Gb iTunes music across...

There's not enough hours in the day lol

I'll get there though, she's a great machine though and, doesn't get hot... although i haven't played any games yet so time will tell i guess...
