    Why doesn't dell and alienware implement a laptop that uses a desktop cpu (I know it would use another montherboard) ? I checked the specs on a sager 9262 and the system is a little smaller and thinner than the dell xps 1730. The sager weights about 12 lbs with the power cord and the dell is 10.6 lbs without its power cord

    So why doesn't dell or alienware make a PC thats as fast as the sager with a desktop cpu? I doubt the m17x is gonna be as fast as the sager 9262 but AW is still claiming it the worlds fastest notebook (it didn't say most powerful MOBILE notebook"


    why???
