    It’s a beastly laptop, for sure.
    Before I upgraded, I had the Alienware Area 51 M15x. I had to replace it in less than a year because the case snapped in half. Cheap built computer…I really like the XPS M1730. Could probably compare to my M17x. We’ll see.

    Light colours can be changed in speaker grills and touchpad.
    The light on the top lid is white – it cannot be changed. Instead you purchase a coloured top panel, rather then a coloured light.

  25. themacbeth

    can you change colour of underlight??
