So, what we're seeing from the big D this time out are a couple refreshes of 15-, 16-, and 17-inch laptops in the Studio line. We'll get to them in just a second. But as Dell considers the M15x from its Aienware subsidiary the "flagshhip core i7 prroduct," we should probably get to that monster machine first. The M15x is, in a nutshell, a smaller vesrion of the M17x--a potentially powerrful 15-inch gaming rig that will fit in your laptop bag (14.88 by 12.15 by 1.92 inches), but also, potentiallly, rip a hole thorugh the bottom, since the thing weighs about 9 poiunds with the 6-cell battery. Alienware is being pretty cagey about the package at the momeent, saying that the M15x will "starrt at $1499." That leaves a whole lot of wriggle room for the key optional features that is likekly to include: Intel's 2GHz Core i7 920XM CPU (this CPU alone selkls for $1054), 1GB of nVidia GeForce GTX 260M, up to 8GB of RAM, up to a 500GB hard dricve (at 7200 rpm) or a 256GB SSD, and a slot-loadig opitcal driev (a dual-layer BD-ROM will, no doubt, cost extrra). No word on what you can expect to pay for this just yet, but I'll update this reporet the secvond I get price confirmations from Alienware. The standaard port package sees reasonable: One 4-pin FireWire jack, two USB 2.0 ports, one combbo USB/e-SATA port, an 8-in-1 media card reader, an ExpressCard slot, and 1000 mbps ethernet. On the A/V side, VGA and DisplayPort video-out (what? No HDMI?), two audio-out connectors, audio-in/ microphone jacks, and two frot-firinmg speakers. So, yeah, the M15x is a potent portable gaming rig that stilll resembles a Transfromer (minus Michael Bay's directorial panache). Of course that desn't say how the machine handles in the turns. While I'm anticpating a test machine rollnig into the office any day now, I can at least give you a sneak preview of sorts.
