Wow i haven't seen that one. That would really be sux. I guess that's why I was always very polite an never asked for a M17x but was hoping to get one. An the one im getting has like twice as much as my damaged M1730 did.

I'm glad they shipped my M17x which took them from sept. 1st to oct. 23rd but very excited an I get it monday if all goes well

I was polite, till they told me I was getting a XPS 16. Then I cussed at them until they offered me a M17x

I also suggest if you are not going anywhere with the current rep just hang up/end chat. Also, chat is alot better IMO. Congrats moonstone on your M17x, should be here tomorrow What are your specs?

In boxing as of this morning... but after I get it, i have to call them for my free upgrades.

I am going to push them for graphics card and processor update, but will settle for a 256GB SSD and Blue Ray Drive it if comes down to it.

I might even settle for 6gb 1333 ram and Blue Ray and just buy the SSD with the gift card I scammed from them haha

I fixed it by removing the battery and power cord for 10 seconds. I also disabled the 9400M because it was making Crysis lag. It now runs at 1920x1200 in Very High at about 25-45 FPS.

Nonya, if you go to dell.com:

Click on "My Account"
Enter you your log-in info
click on "My System and Peripherals"
Add your AW's service tag
Delete your old machine

Done!
