On top of that, the M17x has a built-in WirelessHD transmitter, so if it's 17-inch 1080p display isn't big enough, you can beam Blu-ray movies, games, and anything else you want wirelessly across the room to a big-screen TV."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1298479632.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>When it comes to PC Gaming brands, Ailenware is often tossed around.&nbsp; The company has been around for over a decade and even after being bought by Dell, it seems to retain its "boutique" status for premium gaming hardware.&nbsp; Their flagship laptop, the M17x is designed to attract attention and not just with specs, which do boast some of the latest tech.&nbsp; Of course, with a price tag hovering around $3,300, at a time when basic laptops can be had for $500 or less, there better be a lot of bells and whistles.&nbsp; From its unique styling to the custom LED backlighting on various parts of the laptop, you pick Alienware because you want to stand out.&nbsp; The challenge has been made and it will be interesting to see what the other boutique gaming companies offer to compete.</p>
