  • Hugely expensive, Just huge, Clunky process to switch graphics
  • If you're looking for a proper desktop replacement -- replacing a gaming desktop, that is -- the Alienware M18x is undoubtedly the notebook to pick. It's massive and has a price tag that's painful, but its performance is almost unparalleled...

  • Hugely expensive, Very large and heavy
