Those diodes are everywhere, by the way - multiple places on the lid, underneath the keyboard and along the edges, with a thin, glowing line ringing the front and sides of the chassis. In a nod to past Alienware designs, the laptop features 10 distinct lighting zones that can each be customized with one of 19 colors (Dell claims a full 20, but we don't count "black" if it means "turned off"). This matte surface dulls the laptop's angled edges, which are decorated by a plethora of LED lights. The metal overhaul extends to the keyboard support brackets, screen hinges and LCD assembly too, although it isn't readily apparent under the soft rubber coating that stretches across the machine's face. Both the 14 and 17 feel incredibly solid, thanks no doubt to a sturdy magnesium alloy chassis. Unpacking the laptops, we find a brand-new generation of Alienware notebooks, built from the ground up with better materials and a fresh design.
