Alienware Area51-m Extreme Review

Hexus.net has posted an Alienware Area51-m Extreme review
Personally I love it. I'm a geek, I appreciate a £650 server CPU in my laptop. I appreciate being able to swap the GPU. I like having a 4x DVD+RW on the move with 1GB of memory and a 60GB HDD to feed it. I like 108Mbit WiFi without even having the means to use it.
My personal feelings aside, it's an obvious bit of niche hardware that's hard to traditionally score. Is it the fastest gaming laptop on the planet? Yes. Does it cost an absolute fortune? Yes. Do people who'd actually buy one care? Do they hell.
It's an engineering showcase with a worldwide market that's probably smaller than the market that bought a Parhelia to play games on. It's both fantastic and pointless at the same time.
