Alienware Aurora m9700 Review

Laptop Magazine recently reviewed the Alienware Aurora m9700, a nice gaming notebook with a high price. Gaming laptops from Alienware make all my friends drool. Laptop Magazine has a fair bit to say on the machine.

Alienware has been building gaming notebooks longer than any other company here, and its experience shows in the 9.5-pound Aurora m9700. Anything weighing less than ten pounds is positively svelte in a crowd like this. The Aurora is encased in a solid chassis adorned with Alienware’s trademark glowing AlienEyes and rubberized grips. Notable features include a 1.3-MP tilting camera above the display, a touch-sensitive, quick-launch pad, and a front-mounted optical drive. Positioning the optical drive away from the sides allows for better port distribution and makes room for the RAID configuration that is fast becoming a company standard.

In the end Laptop Magazine gave the Alienware Aurora m9700 a four and a half out of five as well as an Editor’s Choice badge and interestingly enough, the machine is cheaper than Dell’s XPS computer of similar configuration.
