Alienware m17 R2 review: A 17-inch showstopper?

 

The m17 R2 is the 17-inch alternative to the m15, delivering huge specs and performance in a slender body. But is it style over substance?

Doesn't run too hot when gaming ; Tobii eye-tracking (on some models) ; Various wide-ranging specification choices ; Cool lines and pleasing aesthetics
