Alienware Area-51m is a Beautiful, Monstrous Desktop Replacement

Please elaborate! Care to give the specs of the quoted model price of $2549 or do we assume it's the 9900k/RTX2080/64gb Ram etc? Or is it another lead down the garden path, with actual top end spec/prices to be much more than the quoted price.

"You can upgrade the CPU (if it’s compatible with Intel’s Z390 chipset), RAM and storage, and, a surprise for a gaming notebook, the GPU"
Oh, just just like we used to be able to do, before Alien'Dell'ware started to cut costs.
It is most welcome though, as my 17R3 is now ready for updating.

The $2549 model is as follows:
i7 8700
RTX2070
8GB RAM (2x4 for dual channel)
1TB SSHD
1080p 60hz display.

The 9900k with 32GB RAM, RTX2080, 512GB Raid 0 + 1TB SSHD, and 1080p 144hz tobii eye tracking screen is $4250.

The stupidest thing to me about this laptop is that they do not offer the 8700k as a processor option. The only options on their website are: 8700, 9700k, 9900k
