        <description><![CDATA[Alienware isn't about to compare that M15x to the Macbook Pro. They know it doesn't hold a candle to it.  Do you think they're stupid? They have to get customers. $5,000 for a piece of junk PC running Windows. Man, how can they even compete with OS X? Not possible. That's why, too.  The newest Macbook Pro is so sweet with the 512 megs of VRAM and the 17&quot; screen. Also, you get more and faster drive space for less now. I'm thinking of selling this 2.4GHZ Macbook Pro and buying me a 2.6GHZ. Wow!  Once you go Mac, you never go back.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[One of my fellow employees who purchased an Airbook also picked up Apple's USB Ethernet adapter.  Works quite well though limited to 10/100 mbps operation.  For the $30 price tag, he's very happy with the results.Hmmm... how long ago would writing &quot;limited&quot; and &quot;10/100mbps&quot; in the same sentence have been laughable?]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[After using an Air Book and being fond of the way little surprises &quot;open up&quot; to available ports it would seem to me that an ethernet port could be engineered much like older pcmcia card modems which had &quot;pop out&quot; phone jacks tucked inside.  Matter of fact, that would be very simple for integration and would also make the air book more desireable.  How cool would that be?]]></description>

Both laptops were returned to alienware for service, which maybe took about a month each. Support suks the big one, and the h/w is junk. I have nothing good to say about alienateware .
