new 15" & 17" laptops w/ 8800m GTX! - Page 34

post #661 of 961
I don't get the 'System lighting' option for it. It asks you for a color yet the graphics above the option indicate an AlienFX facility like on the desktops where you can change the colors. But there's no choice for the FX ??? What have I missed?

I had the same thought.
Maybe that is the initial color setting.

Is the "Clearview Technology" mean glossy?

I have called AW sales twice talking to 2 different people. They both said that both of the screen options available are glossy. They also said that silver was the only color they had "at this time".

I bet it is just the initial color setting.

I called today to clear up the hold they placed on my 9750, so I canceled it instead. I only want the 17" and skull design, and they guy I had on the phone would not budge on a release date, or he really did not know. Will you all have the updated m17 information in this thread????

That's a bummer.
Now what to do?

Given some of the limited options on the pre-orders, I'm actually sort of glad the 17x is being delayed a bit...I figure it'll be good to wait and get EVERYTHING I can out of this purchase because for this kind of coin, it will be a LONG LONG LONG time before doing this again

pat!
post #667 of 961
wait. probably the best thing to do now for those who can wait.
post #668 of 961
I am not in a rush.
Although, I doubt they will come out with a non-glossy screen option. So waiting will probably not help that.
I may wait a month unitl I finish building my wife's computer and save a few more dollars.

They told me only the ClearView option was Glossy...

I ordered the 1080 option as I was specifically told it was non glossy.

Hmmm. I really did not want the 1920 x 1200 res, but I may have to bite the bullet on this one.
post #671 of 961
On hold getting the answer now.

Might have to cancel and go with Sager after all.
post #672 of 961
Ok, I am told now, that BOTH SCREENS ARE GLOSSY.

This changes everything. I may have to cancel. I really hate Glossy screens.
post #673 of 961
Thanks for confirming the screens. Oh well.
I may have to look at a glossy screen again.
post #674 of 961
One interesting thing i've noticed is if you do a "More info" on the displays you won't see Clearview mentioned on the 1920x1200. It's only mentioned on the 1440x900. This may not mean a thing, though.

I like glossy screens.
But hate the price.
post #676 of 961
are they just offering the Ripley design for launch? What about skullcap?
post #677 of 961
They will be offering the skullcap.
The ripley is the only option right now.
Maybe in 2 weeks, we will see more options.
post #678 of 961
It's still a waiting game. I don't like the options they "force" you to take at the moment.

btw I was being silly/joking bout the tax in shipping. Like I said, I snuck on board and placed my order on the mother ship before it took off ( I felt like I was playing that old school video game "Out Of This World --mmm classic) =p

Can't they just like beam it to me =p hahah

btw, as I was running down a corridor and out to the exit of the ship. I saw several forum members being probed... I won't name names since I don't want them to have any recollection of it.

I kinda want a black m15x... and if they're gonna release one, I'll just wait.
