Hi.

I'm thinking about getting one of these laptops and I have a few questions that I could not get answered today on the phone to Alienware.

How upgradable are these systems ? By upgradable I mean upgrade the motherboard when Intel release a new cpu for example.

Will I be able to upgrade the gpu to nVidia's 680m (if one becomes available) ?

Can I have one built that does not come with Winblows ?

Cheers for your time guys :)
 
Thanks guys...

garyfl: Do you like it ? Any problems ?

Do you think it might be an idea to wait for the next gen gfx cards to come out ? I'm hearing nVidia are releasing the mobile versions first you see...

Edit: Is there actually anywhere you can get these laptops from or do you have to get one through Alienware/Dell ? The reason I ask is because I found it hard to talk to someone who is English on the phone today. No one could answer my questions as they could not understand me. Plus if it went **** up I could just pop it down to the place I bought it from :)

That's good to know, thanks ! I was thinking about getting one from the States. I have a friend over there and when you look at the price difference it's quite a lot. Get it shipped over and bobs ya uncle :)
