[TheBaldy40]

[BakerBoy011]

YES!!! yes they should.  it would be crazy expensive, but crazy awesome!

[aabmikey]

sony and alienware should make electronics together.

[Sood1200abhi]

@zozanday about 13-14 months, and there were absoloutely no problems with it before

[awsom1001]

aliens have better laptops

[toughdoughrs]

LMAO AT THE CRISIS JOKE

[MapleSephiroth]

@toughdoughrs hahahaha i saw your comment and i thought in my head "i bet the exact words he's gonna say is, "will it run crysis?". i bursted out laughing so freakin hard that i was actually right! XD

[MultiJosh2k9]

what a Beast! :D

[TrueCall]

lol did he say crapware? hahahaha "there is no crapware on the system"

[Sood1200abhi]

guys from my experience never buy and alienware (or at least it's laptops) because my $3,800 alienware m17 died a few weeks ago.It wasn't even a year before the motherboard had a problem, and it stopped charging. I tried replacing the charger, battery, and checked to see if it was anything else and it was the effing motherboard.

But,i couldnt buy a new motherboard because alienware doesnt fucking manufacture them anymore!!Therefore,i had to buy a cheap macbook pro... lets see how this one lasts.

[dlosher]

@Sood1200abhi dang.. i dont know if you knew it, but you get a 1 years free warranty on it...

[Sood1200abhi]

@dlosher well actually it was a little over a year =S my bad...

[alexcheetah79]

God, I wonder what will be out when this thing is considered 'slow'

[OceanicLyfe]

Will it run tetris?

[flager67]

@OceanicLyfe !!!TETRIS!!! 

[2221films]

what game is that looks very fun.

[Reapersmoon]

@2221films the game is darkvoid

runs even better on my r2 than that r1 :P

[CrazyBrainDead]

Dude, that is an awesome pc, I just bought it :D What game was that ?? :D

[gta4iscool437]

question: Can you turn off all the lights on the computer for example the keyboard?

[tatazike]

@gta4iscool437 yeah u actually can, I can do it on mine

[gta4iscool437]

@tatazike ok nice because i thought of it because of saving power

[tatazike]

@gta4iscool437 yeah i thought the same when i was buying it xD but yeah u can (:

[mingemil]

play starcraft 2. i want to see if your units also disappear from the map. gaming laptop my ass. wasted 3k on this piece o shit.

[limpei1]

@mingemil lol agreed. i had to suffer with this piece of shit for 6 months before i solved its problems but still also not really that powerful

[7digitalSunday]

backlit keyboard is nice

can you change backlit color in keyboard and can it turn down the brightness?

[bigboi2610]

@7digitalSunday yes and yes

[Truemoderate]

When are they gonna offer the 480M gpu processor, as opposed to the 260M SLI they offer now?! This would be awesome (for a while at least) with the Intel i7 QX9300 quad core processor, the SSD drive, and the NVIDA 480M SLI gpu!!!

[Th3Downz]

I wanna get one of these so badly you have no idea. Now I just need to get the money...

[alexbeast14]

Im ordering mine tomorrow!! I cant wait!!

[L3gitLockerz]

I think they're might be a new one coming out later this summer. Think about it.... the last revision came out in June. It's usually 1.5 years after release of a laptop that Alienware changes the design.

My M17x (summer 2009)

Intel Core 2 Quad QX9300 Overclocked 3.07 GHz

6GB DDR 3 RAM

Dual GTX 260M's SLI Mode

[beyondsupreme]

If you buy M17x, i`ll buy you

[chevguy502]

buy asus A1 or A2 way cheaoer and better performance for dollar

[mrchaoskidx]

thats not a alienware. Its a HP laptop noob.

Cant wait for the replys to this, YES I WANT ATTENCTION!

[xXWHYHATERAINXx]

Shit im sooo stoked. i ordered mine yesterday

[Megajunkie01001]

Looks like an amazing machine. But no matter what they say about the design I think its ugly.

[bobbycatacutan]

@Megajunkie01001

you're ugly

[MarranaPOTM]

@Jack2Hammer around 3 weeks check ur status :S mine got canceled twice mad pissed XD because of my debit card didnt gave them permission :) + it depends ins configurations

[HardstyleDannii]

Macs are shit compared. End of.

[alienwareify]

[ilovewwe12341]

best. laptop. ever.

[Rhodesie2009]

@ilovewwe12341 NO its fail

[ilovewwe12341]

@Rhodesie2009

no its not.

your fail.

this laptop is awesome.

[Rhodesie2009]

@ilovewwe12341 have u ever had one of these...i have their shit

[ilovewwe12341]

@Rhodesie2009

i know somebody who owns it...

and i've used it before a couple of times, and its amazing!

especially for gaming! ^.^

and its not shit....

[ilovewwe12341]

thats the best laptop ever!!!!!! :D

[TIM3TOSHR3D]

Is it just me or does one of those guys sound like John Madden?

[speew]

and the battery lasts for like what? one hour? Any computer running windows is crap, no matter if it costs $200 or $5000. Mac all the way!

[rickman1945]

@speew Why are you searching gaming laptops if you use macs? If you use a mac the thought of major gaming shouldn't even cross your mind their so bad at it. Macs are good at organization, projects, a lot of things. But are complete shit for gaming.

[speew]

@rickman1945 Why would I want to use a laptop for hardcore gaming anyway? Laptops are made to be portable, so how portable is a laptop which has a battery life of less than one hour? If I want gaming, I'd buy a desktop PC/console with a 27 inch display, not a laptop. This is just a toy for rich kids that they get bored of quickly...No matter what you say, there's no hardcore gaming on a 17 inch display...

[dsdude280]

@speew then you can take the laptop with you when you go places and play your games over there. You won't have to be home all the time to play games. -.-

[jimvuraot04]

@speew Yea why whould you use laptop for gaming anyways? the answer is because your laptop wont handle the graphics on gaming! and the porpuse they made this laptop is for players bring they gaming anywheere else! and to prove that ther laptop can handle any highend graphic games out ther that an MAC CANT! and your a mac person so you shouldnt even searching nor watching this kind of video! period

[bobbycatacutan]

@jimvuraot04

How old are you? Because by the way you spell and type, I'm guessing around 10. Maybe 11 if i'm lucky.

[jimvuraot04]

@bobbycatacutan sorry about my typing ang language! i grew up on differen country!

[jimvuraot04]

@speew LOL mac are for stupid people!

[speew]

@jimvuraot04 I doubt that, I'm a mac user, and I feel right at home when I use windows, but I wonder how many PC users know how to use a mac. I won't even bother to tell you that even the guys who invented youtube use macs (proof watch?v=x0MnuF9zRx4 - look at the scroolbars, smartass)

[jimvuraot04]

@speew Dont get me wrong! Mac is good but where talking about gaming here and Mac is a peace of shit about gaming! and every gamer knows that!

[Rhodesie2009]

@jimvuraot04 yea but dont point it out

[TheItGirl298]

in soviet russia alienware plays u!

[thejamie246]

[GERZYtheGAMER]

[hulkman554]

[coolaidkiller101]

[coolaidkiller101]

[TheMinegarde]

[x3WinterStory]

You kidding? If this laptop can't run GTA 1, or even 4(if there is), no other laptops can run it. This laptop costs a bomb though :(

[Redthorn57]

@HeliLuuk of course it will

[lilyboi]

It's also v upgradeable! So u can get it now n get direct x 11 later!

[faceofdead]

[Socrbals145]

[noahjell]

waaaaa!! i want one but i'm broke :( :( :( :(

[limpei1]

i just bought mine online. now waiting for delivery

[Rodolfsk8]

@limpei1 how could you afford it?

[limpei1]

@Rodolfsk8 i pay half, parents pay half?

[Rodolfsk8]

@limpei1 sorry if it was impolite... and how did you get half of it?

[limpei1]

@Rodolfsk8 like i said i pay half of it. the other half my parents helped me. just work part time job and get the cash

[limpei1]

@Rodolfsk8 somehow when mine came it has lots of problems. took me 2 months to solve it. imagine that, i buy it wana enjoy the holiday but end up unable to play games only watch videos, search for ways to solve and only play dos games. how u like that?

but now its ok, just that its not so powerful and its not really portable. runs real hot on graphic games. just kinda make me regret buying it u know? 3k+ could buy me a dam good pc that runs 5x more powerful and faster

[hairyjoicestick]

@limpei1 How much time did the delivery take.

[limpei1]

@hairyjoicestick 2-3weeks for mine. And somehow mine cant play crysis on max settings

[bobbycatacutan]

@limpei1

What are your specs. From what I've heard on the internet you can get 70 FPS on crysis with max settings on dual radeon HD 5870 graphics cards. Please don't tell me you bought the single graphics card and expected to play a game like crysis ROFL

[limpei1]

@bobbycatacutan mines dual gtx280m. 4gig ram, bla bla cant remember the specs but aint the lousy one. my integrated graphics card spoilt after 1 month of using stupid hybrid sli. well mine can play crysis on max settings but only get around average 30-40fps and heats up till 70+degrees

[afds6985]

@bobbycatacutan You're a dumbass, you should stop trolling people and get on with your boring life. You're probably a fatass who lives in your mommy's basement. Get a life.

[bobbycatacutan]

@afds6985

" I'm 19 years old. I love watching anime, and reading Manga. If you have anything about anime please message me".

Yeah........ 19 years old and still watching kiddie cartoons, and I'm the one that needs a life ROFL.

[afds6985]

@bobbycatacutan You spend your life trolling people. I'd rather be the one watching "kiddie" cartoons, rather than spend my whole life trolling people. Get a girlfriend, or boyfriend incase your're gay.

[afds6985]

@bobbycatacutan You spend your life trolling people. I'd rather be the one watching "kiddie" cartoons, rather than spend my whole life trolling people. Get a girlfriend.

[bobbycatacutan]

@afds6985

"I love anime. I watch Naruto and Hentai" I'm sorry but cardboard cut outs of your favorite anime star don't count ROFL

[afds6985]

@bobbycatacutan You need to sort out your life Booby. Go find something productive to do. Get off that fat ass and go hit a treadmill, maybe youll find a girlfriend or boyfriend.

[bobbycatacutan]

@afds6985

Okay let me give you some tips on how to live your life because somebody obviously needs a reality check.

1) Stop watching anime, only kids watch that ROFL.

2) Stop fapping to anime. Dude it's like fapping to a piece of paper with little lines on it LMFAO

3) Stop pretending your cartoon cutout of Sakura from Naruto is your girlfriend.

4) If you have the time to refresh this page all day for my comments, I'm pretty sure you're really fat and ugly LOL!!!!

Have a great day hun

[afds6985]

@bobbycatacutan Ok look. I can do whatever I want, you cannot alter my life. I'm pretty sure your're the one who's fat and ugly, you probably have never had a girlfriend because you cannot treat a human right. Have a great day.

[mx0670]

@bobbycatacutan You know how I know you're retarded? You add LOLOLOLROFLAHAHAH at the end of your insults.

Fuckin' idiot ROFLMAO

See what I did thar?

[bobbycatacutan]

@mx0670

Nope but I can see what you were trying to do. Hit me up an offer and I'll teach you how to be funny. PEACE

[limpei1]

@bobbycatacutan and of course 5870 is better u dumbfuck. heard from internet? dont act like u know everythig when u didnt see it urself

[bobbycatacutan]

@limpei1

Yeah because everybody who buys a laptop doesn't do any research on it, and flies somewhere to somebody with the same laptop so he can say "Hey this thing works great; I should buy it!!!!" LMFAO

[limpei1]

@bobbycatacutan i did lots of research on it u fucking noob. other ppl with older m17x runs better. mine is cuz of the faulty graphics card. so u shut the fuck up man. go get a life.

[bobbycatacutan]

@limpei1

someones mad =D?

[limpei1]

@bobbycatacutan nah. not worth for a piece of shit

[KERRRISSS]

@limpei1 how is it? I just did the same thing.

[limpei1]

@KERRRISSS its still ok... just not the most powerful and its hardly portable. if i had a choice again i would choose another laptop instead

[standup91]

the mouse kicks ass

[Rhodesie2009]

"Will it run Crysis?" LOL

The Ultimate Question

[ElderSilverFox]

this laptop was built by God it can run ANY game

[wieditleestisleip]

Its build by an alien!

[Invader15678]

Its best for gamming it can run every game

[IxSkatexEnjoi]

@Rhodesie2009 Clearly it will lol

[Evilnils]

@Rhodesie2009 Lmao brilliant 

[lauris15151]

@Rhodesie2009 yeah on highest settings with no lag :]

[FlatGameWalkthorughs]

@Rhodesie2009 i have the same question but i dont know i think im gonna buy a Alienware area alx 51 2010 model and then maybe i will do a review with crysis on high ultra maxed settings dont worry il get my computer soon

[Rhodesie2009]

@FlatGameWalkthorughs i got my m17x a while back now and i was utterly disappointing. Barely 30fps on max settings on crysis and the price was disgusting for what i got. i kept blue screening and the start up took forever. if u have the money to goa ll out on one of these which is about 6k and get all of the highest spec components, go for it, but otherwise build ur own or get a custom built one. i have just made my for just over 3k with oc 4ghz amd core and crossfire ati radon hd 5870's.

[ChefVids]

that dude has a kickass mustasce.

[Rhodesie2009]

@ChefVids YEAH
