    The OP's is actually a pretty sour deal. Moo's, however, has given life to this thread.

    BTW icehell, if that's a deal to you, you can PM me about a notebook I can sell you =P.

    Still not trumping the W90 cost though, bet you wish that deal was there when you got your M17X.

    They should have sold it at this cost from the get go and probably would have had a lot more sales and 9850/W90 potential owners convert.

    was referring to the fact of Alienware comparable price to Clevo :eek:

    should clevo resellers in USA lower their price after looking to Moo deal :D

    They already are the same approx price. In fact the clevo is a little cheaper if you buy the parts separate.
