Amazon has a discount on the Alienware M11x gaming laptop, $143 less than the list price. I bought my M11x last September, and fell in love with it instantly. Two months later, my love remains true: It's easily the best laptop I ever owned, a near-perfect combination of portability, 3D power, and beautiful geektastic design. (Indeed, whenever I take it out around gamers, it inspires envied sighs -- it's a veritable geek magnet.) I just took the above photo of my Alienware running Second Life with all the graphic features turned up to maximum, including dynamic shadows, while also playing Pandora and Backyard Monsters, a fairly large Flash game. The link above, by the way, includes a New World Notes affiliate code, so if you click it and buy the laptop (or anything else during that session on Amazon), this blog gets a small cut. Here's another Amazon offer many NWN readers will like: An Xbox 360 bundled with the groundbreaking Kinect motion sensor control for $300 total.

Ack, looks like it. Thank link used to list a $300 bundle, now it just lists pricier resellers.
