Alienware chassis

[Avenrosh]

I really like the layout (camera placement plus the oversize keyboard) of the Aurora m9700, but I was also interested in putting together my own laptop... Does anyone know of a supplier who sells a stock laptop that is similar, or if it's even possible to get the laptop from whoever supplies Alienware?

Asus and MSI sell barebones laptops but they look nothing like A/w, other than that to get an Alienware shell you'll probably have to buy one second hand.

Manufacturer: http://www.arima.com.tw/
Model: W830-DA

A few foreign resellers sell it also under their own name, but charge a boatload like AW. Arima won't sell to non-oem's apparently.

If you like the 17" SLI feature in a laptop, you might also want to check this one out: http://www.pro-star.com/link/9191.html

they say that laptop ships out in ~5 weeks, by then all the other sager/clevo resellers will also have it

and there are some resellers that have it for pre-order
