Yes ... I am getting one to be delivered tomorrow. It will have the i7 processor / 8 GB Ram / bluetooth / Win 7 Ultimate. Love the backlit keyboard. Wish it had a gigabit Lan. I have a 7 yr old Alienware laptop that is still working fine. I have upgraded the hard drive many times and upgrading the videocard and memory is easy. Changing the battery is easy too which is a feature I wish the M11X had. It is done easily enough once you remove the cover but on my old maching you just pressed a release button and the battery slid out. I love Alienware as they make their products customer upgradeable. I have had other laptops such as HP and Asus which are the opposite .. they do not want the customer to upgrade parts hoping people will buy new units when an upgrade is wanted. The M11X is upgradeable and so when I receive it I will be installing a 1 TB hard drive / antiglare screen protector / keyboard protector and a Gigabit Lan when I can acquire one. I am sure I will love this unit as I have been wishing for a 11.5-12.5 inch laptop with top of the line features for some time for use when I travel as I travel a fair bit.
