    Hi, i'm writing you from Spain, sorry if my english isn't entirely correct. As the tittle says i'm looking for a M17X
    In Spain the price starts in 1899€ with:
    Proc q9000
    Ram 4gb 1333mhz
    Hd 160gb @ 7200rpm
    Single 260 gtx
    Screen 900p
    the different options that dell offers to Spain are:
    http://configure2.euro.dell.com/del...es&m_30=322839&oc=N00W1701&rbc=N00W1701&s=dhs

    As u can see in Spain alienwares are more expensive than in other countries :(
    I was thinking in the next configuration:
    Proc: q9000
    Ram 4gb 1333mhz
    Hd 160gb@ 7200rpm (i want to upgrade to a second hd buying the caddy as i have read in this forum :p )
    Screen 1200p +95€
    Single 1 GB ATI® GDDR3 Mobility™ Radeon™ 4870 +25€
    About the cd reader i was thinking in put br reader (+140€) or is posible upgrade it later?

    The final price of that is 2159€ + shipping rates, i have spoke with dell comercials but they dont make any disscount :S
    What do you think about this configuration? any suggestions?

    Thanks for your help and greetings from Spain!!!!!

    Unless you are going for an SLI configuration, I think it is better to just get an M15x.
