Can build one hell of laptop, if you have 5 grand to throw down.
Blu-ray drives unavailable from Dell
The Alienware laptops are a bit too garish for my tastes. I'm waiting to snap up a Studio XPS 16, but no Blu-ray, no deal.

Sager laptops have the Core i7 with better video cards for around $2k, that's $3k than the alienware equivalent. They also ship within a week, and aren't garish. I bought one and love it - it arrived within the fortnight from their factory in the US to Australia.
