    they are just starting to recieve them. give people time. they can only do it when they have free time. i doubt most people will stay at home typing up a review once they get the machine. they are obviously going to have some fun with it before even thinking about a review.

    To be fair they seem to be shipping some high-end units, for full testing. There are some small reviews of the basically specced m17x's but, for full reviews units we need the fully loaded and therefore heat producing, units, which seem to be taking ages to be shipped out.

    I'm sure Caz will do a review as soon as he gets a unit and the time lol

    Received my M17X today. Sorry still in the box. No time to check it right now other than to make sure there was no obvious damage from shipping. . It has 2.8 cpu and 8800m GTX gpu SLI config. Will be posting pics and review over the weekend. Still using the M15X so it will be interesting to see how it compares.

    Please don't post pictures. Use those time to test and review. We have already seen enough photos of it. It's all the same on the outside. Only performance matters.
