    So, how many M15x to M860TU converts do we have here?

    Just wondering how many of us former M15x forum users have jumped ship over to this forum... for the sake of a better, more reliable machine ;)

    I'm not really a convert in the strictest sense. But I looked at AW before I got my Sager and don't have any regrets at all. ;)

    From the sound of it, I'm glad I held out for the m860tu/NP8660 too. :)

    I do miss the M15x forums though. *sigh*


    P.S. Love the sig, Crimson!

    m15x was probably the worst experience and biggest dissapointment of my life.
    Once I thought Alienware was the thing... I couldn't be more further away from the reality. AW treated me with complete disrespect, abused me, made me loose time and patience and I will tell everyone I know away from them.
    They should be ashamed of having put their clients through the sh*t they have put so many of us.

    Clevo, on the other hand... was a total and complete surprise. Never heard, never seen an amazing publicity campaign regarding its products but turned out to be everything that the AW propaganda "sells" but fails to deliver... The best laptops in the world! :D

    All part of the charm for me. I'm the same way with bands... take Oasis as an example: Full of themselves... and they think they are the world's greatest musicians, but there are so many other un-hyped bands out there that are so much better. Word-of-mouth is the greatest form of recommendation. Look what happened to the Arctic Monkeys. Clevo is an Arctic Monkey. :D
