    Did anyone here ever buy the World of Warcraft version of the M1730? I couldn't see why anyone would want to buy double the price for a computer that comes with $300 worth of WoW stuff (plus a really nice-looking WoW themed design).

    Wow, starting at $4000, it doesn't even come with maxed out specs. Not even the 8800 SLI.

    Nah I'd just get a Sapphire Blue 1730 maxed out for that amount of money.

    if you max this sucker out with addons (like bluetooth, and warranty) you can easily pass 10,000.

    I got almost the same specs on my 1530 for £800.00 = $1600.00

    What a joke, I would rather buy a alienware for design.
