[QUOTE="Plexx, post: 60760"] Off topic: Alienware does use other features that can be found only in the Toshiba's gaming laptop, Asus Gaming machine and MSI but its still in my opinion bloated. MSI for example is a good Alien alternative and slightly cheaper. Similar specs to mine would be around 1600GBP as well (although mine was with 300GBP discount). The original XPS17 is not a gaming laptop. It is basically for same features as HP's Beats Audio purposes. However since Dell allows customization, I tweaked and paid way more for a gaming style laptop, while retaining the sleek look and not a bulky look of MSI or Alienware. Alienware laptops still have potential but they need to revamp the fan outs and position of components, specially when you are running a dual graphics card. MX17/18 and Dell XPS17 for example both use a 9 cell battery (heavy on weight by default). Doing the same exact tasks with stock settings out of box OS, my dell lasts longer than the MX18/MX17 (both are exactly the same but screen on 18 is slightly bigger thats it). Overseas issue for me is not a problem since I am in the south of spain, so calls get redirected to UK and postage also goes back there. Plus I have at least 1 Dell official seller here, so its all good:) [/QUOTE]
