What is you're opinion on the xm15 models coming out in Mid-February?

The Level 2 & 3 seem like the ones I like the most, But is it really worth the $400 for a 120GB SSD and a 200mhz faster Processor?

And will the sales only apply If you buy it before the release date?

EDIT: It also has 2GB more RAM of the same speed (6 vs 8)

It's definitely worth it if you have the budget for it. A bigger SSD, more memory, and a faster CPU.

Alex, I have a quick question. How long will the new xm series be on sale? until they come out?

Also, since the xm15 Level 3 is ~1450 and the x15 Level 2 is ~1800, and the only advantage to the x15 I see is the GPU, is it worth the extra 350 to get it?

Is the 460m really worth getting over the 540m? The tests show that the 460m is better, but not by too much.

If the sale Is going to end when they come out, Im going to buy the xm15 level 3.

Thanks,
-AustinHiggs

I believe I am going to get the xm15 later this week, due to the low price. The 540m is the optimus, so it has a higher battery life with better graphics, AND I usually dont play on ultra or even high settings for most games, because I love a high framerate.

Thanks guys, and If there's anything you'd like to tell me last minute, ask away.
