This is the laptop I've just ordered and it's in Pre-Production
Just a word of warning to all, I had an Alienware M15x with an i7 940XM and it was terrible, blue screens all over the place, dodgy components etc, I ended up getting a refund (after 8 months of trying ) so stay well away from Alienware.
I've heard good things about the Clevo P150HM and PC Specialist so lets hope they are right.
What are people's thought's on the WiFi card? 6230 or 6300?
I was reluctant to opt for the 6300 as I use a PS3 controller via MotionInJoy but I guess I can get an external BT Adapter.
