Dell is based in Texas, where everything is allegedly bigger. So maybe it’s not surprising to see that the company is killing off its smallest Alienware gaming laptop. Dell has already largely pulled out of the US netbook, smartphone, and Android tablet space. Dell introduced the Alienware M11x gaming notebook with an 11.6 inch display a few years ago when…

Dell’s Alienware M11x notebook features an 11.6 inch, 1366 x 768 pixel display, a reasonably fast Intel processor, and high performance graphics. At about 4.5 pounds, it’s pretty heavy for an ultraportable laptop, but it’s one of the smallest, lightest, and cheapest ($749 and up) notebooks aimed specifically at video game enthusiasts.

Dell is now offering the Alienware M11x with a choice of a Core 2 Duo, Core i5, or Core i7 processor. When the company started selling the laptop a few months ago, it was one of the cheapest, lightest, and smallest gaming laptops you could buy, weighing just 4.5 pounds and starting at $799.

I’ve read a couple of reviews of the Alienware M11x gaming ultraportable recently. But Scott Kuban’s is the first I’ve seen that points out that the laptop not only can play Crysis at native resolutions, but the computer gets even faster if you overclock the CPU from the BIOS menu. Out of the box, the M11x runs at 1.3GHz and…

The Alienware M11x is a thin and (somewhat) light notebook with an 11.6 inch display, an Intel CULV processor, and some seriously powerful graphics capabilities which make the M11x the first budget 11.6 inch laptop that gamers can truly love. And the folks at Hardware Heaven are apparently in love. They’ve published the first review of the M11x that I’ve…

OK, Alienware and Dell haven’t really been working on the recently announced Alienware M11x thin and light gaming laptop for 5 years. But according to a post on the Direct2Dell blog today, Alienware was working on a small form factor gaming rig back in 2005, a year before Dell bought the company. Unfortunately, the tech at the time just wasn’t…

Dell introduces an 11.6 inch gaming laptop today that a number of sites have started referring to as an Alienware-branded netbook. It’s not. It’s a thin and light machine with a low power processor, high performance graphics, and a price tag of “under $1000.” I’m willing to stretch the definition of netbook to include laptops that have 11 or 12…
