    Its amazing how much difference the processor has made to your scores Alex.

    @Asgaroth; you should get a set of screws in a bag with your M17 for the second HD.

    You think the M17 is ugly? Lol...you should see normal laptops ;)

    I personally love the style on the M17. In fact if I had to choose purely on aesthetics between the M17 and M17x...it'd be a hard choice for me believe it or not. I'd probably edge towards the M17x purely because of AlienFX...

    The M17 is a lovely looking notebook. Its not ugly at all. I know it is a matter of opinion but I think the consensus is that all Alienware notebooks look awesome.

    I had the whitebook and it was beautiful but the m17 look was more aggressive. I would of converted it to it if I still had it.

    Going through a few notebooks I see.....good luck with the hunt for a M17X, I suspect they will be a few pre-owned machines knocking around once the new All-powerful machines have been unveiled.
