Aug 17, 2009 by Tech-Digit

Dell launched an extreme high end laptop, with the hardcore gamers as its target customer. M17x Alienware is packed with the amazingly powerful Intel Centerino Core2 Quad Extreme, dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M GPUs, 8 GB of SDRAM memory and 1Tb of hard drive space. This is to ensure that M17x will be the most powerful gaming laptop and the brand of choice for the wealthy gamers.

Dell M17x features anodized aluminum body with sharp line details, which gives it a strong, aggressive finished. Although this newer version of M17 sports a brand new look, still it preferred to keep the dramatic keypad illumination effects. With its 17 inch WuxGA LCD Display with dual CCFL back lighting and 920×1200 pixel resolution, you can see stunning colors and bolder imagery. And with QuickTouch control pads you can access everything without those bulky mechanical buttons and controls knobs. The Alienware Quicktouch system gives you the power to control volumes, Bluetooth and WIFI and launch your command center and stealth mode by using touch-capacitive sensors.

Other unique features of Dell M17x Alienware is its Binary GFX and Stealth Mode, which gives you the ability to change the graphic setting from discrete to integrated. It also has the AllienSense, a face-detection software that protects your laptop from unknown users. What’s really cool about this laptop is the personalized plaque placed on the bottom part of the M17x. It is a laser-etched nameplate that contains unique characters only for you.

M17x also comes with a built-in 2.0-megapixel webcam, a digital microphone and a WiFi connection that lets you broadcast yourself to the world.
M17x is not only for gamers alike, it is also for those who love surround and quality entertainment viewing. It has a DVD-RW slot that you can upgrade to dual layer for Blu-Ray disc. Plus it creates a room for DisplayPort, HDMI and VGA-outs, plus audio-out jacks for you to connect external speakers for a surround sound experience. If that doesn’t sound good for you perhaps its four-pin FireWire port, four USB plugs, an eSATA/USB combo port, Express card slot and an eight-in-one Media Card reader located at the side of M17x will. And don’t worry about power consumption, M17x 6 cell battery got it covered, not to mentions the power saving features that M17x has.

With all of powerful features packed in a15.98 by 12.65 by 2.11 inches aluminum case that weighs 11.68 pounds, don’t expect a cheap price. But expect greatness and incredible factors. And prepared yourself to be wowed, because DELL M17x Alienware is not for the faint hearted.
