  • Configuration options can get expensive; far from portable
  • Alienware's big and bulky 15.6-inch M15x pulls out most of the stops, thanks to its super-powered CPU ...

  • There's no doubt the Alienware M15x is a blistering gaming laptop, but it all depends on how much you're prepared to pay, and we're not quite sure who it's for. You're not going to leave the house with it, so why not just get a full on...
