    Well this is the thread pertaining to a 15" laptop with some of the specs of the m17.

    Comment things you would like to see in the m15.

    Personally I would like black color 64 bit offered to start.

    The new options on the m17 are awesome and the price is even better (comparing to AW prices). If I wanted a 17" I would have bout the m17 the day it came out. Now Im still looking at the m15x because of the price drop and the fact that I need a 15"

    They could always just take the Clevo case and make a few modifications. That way they would have a new chipset and the R+D would be very inexpensive. With that said some of the HD's of the Clevo's are getting kind of warm so we'll see.

    I don't really think their will be an m15, OCZ doesn't make a 15, and also I think this was kind of an after thought by AW, they saw it come out and thought they could make a few extra bucks. It's probably more of a snack till the next generation of lappys comes out.

    thier is a only m17 because of the m9750's proven track record, and they might have had a stockpile of the chasis, also they save money producing somthing that similar.

    I stand corrected, though after looking at the pictures, it looks more like a cheap clevo.
