LOL, any other laptops to put inside until the M18x arrives?

HP 10.1 inch netbook - I'd probably lose it if I put it in that bag!

Here are two different reviews of the game:

The joystiq review is pretty much a bash review...sigh

Backpack gets here the 12th, M18X is in production and edd for june 3rd. I can't wait to walk about with an empty backpack for 3 weeks!

Brink Official Site Brink is an upcoming first-person shooter video game developed by Splash Damage. In Brink, two factions, Resistance and Security, battle in a once-utopian city called The Ark, a floating city above the waters of a flooded Earth.(wiki)

I have been watching the videos on their site and it looks pretty darn fun! It comes out tomorrow, May 10th.

Is anyone buying a laptop cooling pad for their M18x?

When I was initially ordering it said it would come in may 27th but now in the confirmation email says june 3rd!

I don't need a gaming laptop, right now I have a netbook but the screen is just too

small for me.

M18X releasing in May?

Yeah CDN site has M11x, M14x, M15x and M17xR3 avail...still waiting for M18x!!!!

April 18th maybe and hopefully in Canada!

Sweet, I'm probably going through with this purchase. I was going to get the m17x but for some reason on the Canadian website they don't have the 6970 card in the configuration.

Hey Brian,

Did they have the price posted when the configuration page was up?

thanks,

Wonder what kind of price point the machine will be coming out at. In Canada m17x R3 base is at 1599, while with the 3d screen base is 2299.

I'm going back and forth on what I want for a desktop replacement - I do quite a bit of traveling and I feel that m17x might be too large, but would m14x be large enough!! Oh The Insanity!
