    I just checked the Alienware Website (Canada) and it says that they are offering discounts, soo i go and see and it shows the M11x down from 938 CAD to 899 CAD. The funny thing is before this "offer" the normal retail price was 899!!! this is the case for the m15x and the m17x to!

    Basic marketing scam. Happens all the time and everywhere. Most shops use the same tactic.

    It used to be 899 with 30 day AV. Now it's 899 with 15 month AV. They added McAfee to the base model and then removed the cost... that's their 39 dollar discount.
