I don't understand why this is so much, yet still a deal. Looking at the specs for this, how can it be more the $250-$300? What am I missing?

@brainshank: This is worth a hell of a lot more than $250-$300; it isn't a 'netbook'. The i5 or i7 processor in the computer is much more powerful than your typical netbook processor, and it can handle up to 8 gb of RAM. It also has a much better graphics card than you'll find in any netbook.

Thanks. I saw less than 2 Ghz processing speed and got confused.

I still don't think this is a deal. The i5 is cool and a nice graphics card, but this isn't really a deal IMO. 160gb HD, 4Gb RAM makes this thing middling for a laptop. I bought my Vaio for $550 over a year agoand outside of having 2 cores instead of 4 (I know, sounds dumb out loud), it beats or ties this deal everywhere else. I think this is an example of Dell exerting its influence over Alien, which Alien "claims" doesn't exist. "Come on, make us a cheap gaming laptop..."

@rmcalhou2: Well there's your problem right there. You think a Vaio is better than an alienware anything just because your pc has "Sony" in front of it. The M11x is awesome sauce'um. Hook this baby up to a nice sized moniter and put the laptop off to the side, you have a gaming PC for less than 800 bucks.

I bought a 15" Gateway FX series gaming laptop with better grafx, 4GB ram, 250GB 7200RPM HDD, and a Core2 Duo (2.0GHz) for $750 from BestBuy almost two years ago. The only thing that could be better about this Alienware is the CPU. I'm sure the netbook size is convenient, but not THAT convenient.

I may actually spring for one of these... I recently picked up a BFGtech Deimos, and my only issue with it is that it weighs 30 lbs and doesn't fit on an airplane. the MX11 is, however, a very portable gaming netbook.

would have been an instant buy, but 160gb HD is way too small, I didn't know they even made laptops w/ those anymore. Weak.

Those knocking down this "netbook" aren't seeing the bigger picture. This isn't a 15" gaming laptop. Put a heavy 15" laptop on your lap, airplane tray, bus, or even in your laptop bag - and then do the same thing with this 11" one. There are people who can't use 15" in 99% of the situations they are in, and that's where this 11" shines. It can do everything your 15" gaming laptop can do but in a much smaller form factor, which appeals to people that need this.

It's like saying, "why buy an SUV/minivan/etc when my civic has seats, tires, and an engine too, for $20k less?" Tell that to a family with 4 kids, a baby, and a dog. It just calls for different situations.

And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand why smaller form factors in laptops are generally more expensive than equivilance in power larger ones.

I will say this, I bought it when it first came out in February/March. I absolutely love it, and while it is < 2GHz, I'm able to game on it, do plenty of rendering, whatever I need to do, and the battery life is awesome. It's not your normal "netbook"

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6361944&CatId=3998 17" screen and close to equal specs for $20. I'm just saying. Maybe yoo-yoo is right and I'm missing the potential here, but I'm not paying $750 because it says Alienware on it, just like I wouldn't pay $1100 because it said Apple on it. Also, I'm no Sony fanboy by any means. My Vaio has been sent to San Diego twice now. I'm just commenting on specs for value...

@yoyoo81 From Dell: "The Most Powerful 11” Gaming Laptop in the Universe." Don't you think that's like saying "I have the most kick @$$ Dodge Neon on the block!" :)

I can't get the coupons to work. It keeps telling me that it only works on select systems. Did they kill it for the m11x?

@veejayxl: Make sure you leave it as it is and not try making any upgrades?

@rmcalhou2: Don't diss the Neon, dude. A friend of mine has a Dodge Neon SRT4 that does pretty damn well for itself in a race.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
