Okay guys, I'm trying to cut down on some traveling weight by getting myself a smaller laptop. This of course means that I'd like to sell this sucker!

Great setup but dual 8700m gt's are a bit outdated. Still no knock down cards though. The Ageia processor was replaceable...? I always had the impression that it was built into the mobo.

Thanks Motok! The Ageia processor is actually a removable card that is pretty easily installed. Then you just install the driver and you are good to go!

Please don;t be afraid to send me a REASONABLE offer guys!

Its a tough price to swallow considering its 8700s as opposed to a baseline AW.

You should fill out the notebook Selling Guide. It would be posted up in the market place. Pics also help too

Go to edit >> advanced it and fill out the fields. I don't know why people don't use this more often.

You can even fill out an asking price.

Keep in mind that with the complete care warranty, if this laptop should break for any reason, it might get replaced with an Alienware!
