If you've been holding off on buying a new gaming laptop, consider Alienware's Area-51 m15x. Simply put, this 15.4-inch machine is the fastest mobile gamer we've ever tested. Although the m15x starts at a reasonable $2,149, Alienware's long list of stellar parts quickly runs up the bill: Our souped-up review unit cost a whopping $4,858. Thankfully, it also came loaded with top-end components, including a 512MB GeForce 8800M GTX graphics chip, an Intel Penryn-based 2.8GHz Core 2 Extreme X9000 processor, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, a Blu-ray burner, a 200CB internal hard drive, and an additional 320CB swappable drive.
