Yep, it is. Looks pretty cool when you add a message to your email sig with it.

I want to collect some of the miscellaneous AW stuff too, like keychains, notepads, coffee mugs, shirts, etc. I want a hoodie made with Just the AW logo on the front, should be pretty cool.

You go to a LAN party and a couple people notice your Orion backpack , and say "Nice bag, do you really have an alienware?" So you put your bag down, unzip it and pull out this black sleeve . Then proceed to pull this big, black, sweet looking piece of machinery out, the M17X, or as you refer to as "my lappy" . Then you get out the power supply and you hear an "holy cow, thats huge" under someones breath. Proceed to pull out the AW mouse pad and Tactx Mouse and set them on the bench. Plug everything in and turn it on and hear a couple of "What the hell is that""s over my shoulder. I reply "thats just my lappy" as I spin my hat around and start poundin noobs. I try to act like it's not a big deal but I love the attention this thing gets. They come to check out the looks, but I get em with the performance. "Whathu?" Yes buddy, I'm destroying your mini tower with my laptop, lol. Whats your story? Whatchu got?

LOL, Flash forward a year or two when their fat asses are now in Jazzy's because they crushed that little thing. It's now called a honda tampon. Theres a youtube video somewhere of a man falling off one of these backwards in a big white warehouse looking room and it rolled backwards and ball tagged him, flipping hilarious. *edit - just scoured the web looking for that video. I'm sure Honda made that "go away" lol.

Wait a minute, how did you get scores like that out of the HDD on the right?? What drive is that? I'd be super happy with those speeds, let alone the mack daddy speeds on the SSD. Congrats. Maybe you can start a "How to increase your HDD performance" thread?

UUUHM, I would freak the hell out. Unless you have a Dell purchase (credit) account, after the payment confirmation number of a purchase is received from the card company, all but the last 4 digits of a credit card are purged. There should be no way they can bill something to your card without asking you for the number again. My company has to give them the CC number over the phone or online for every purchase. We buy so much we asked why they couldn't put our card number on file and was told that was not possible. We're going to PO with them now, but thats besides the point. I really think you're gonna be OK Brian, but it will be a pain when that poor soul calls in for support...

It's a nice looking laptop but the cooling system is seriously flawed. If you put it on your lap it cant breathe. The exhaust is pretty sweet looking though. I think the HDD and memory locations are going to make the palm rest pretty hot. Have to see what the real users find. A coworker has a 16" Asus ROG and loves it, so based off that I would entertain the idea of buying one of these.

I have the G.Skill 1333 8GB kit from Newegg and its been great. The 4GB it came with was filled pretty quickly.

I'm running the G.Skill 1333 pair and it has been good. G.Skill 1333

i'm already a permanent resident here. Ive been wanting to do this very thing (create a site/forum) but didn't have the time or help. Great job guys!

I am going to put a link in my sig. At least I have here to go now when i get banned! lol

Wish there was a way to discreetly let others know this thread was alive and well here since the other guys keep deleting posts and closing threads. A bit ridiculous.

I want to get another monitor, but not sure if I really need it for gaming. I have a 25" Hannspree that has been a great monitor. 2 big monitors make any desk look good tho.

Everyone thought I was just being ridiculous when I got 8 gigs. But when they saw I ran a SQL server/ support console VM with XP/ and 2 Dynamics client VM's, they were impressed. Downside is I have to do all the work, lol.

OMG OMG OMG OMG! This is an R2 vs R3 debate! Are you crazy??!! (falls backwards and faints) lol I just tore up all my baseball cards and made YOU GUYS my official heroes! BTW R2 RULES!!!!

I dont know if there has been any official word from Dell at all has there?

Whats up with the avatars? It wont let me add one? Need more posts?

Effing Hilarious! That made my night.

Asked about other forums and when the thread got deleted I asked if it was a Chinese forum. Snarky but not worth a 3day ban.

Soo happy to see the new site and forum! Wish someone would have told me this was coming when I asked what other forums were around and got a 3 day ban for it, lol! Glad to be able to talk about the M18x I want to happen!
