    People are buying the Nebula Red color when they customize their laptop, I dont think they are putting a skin over it. The link above is the actual part that Alienware puts onto your laptop if you select Nebula red but I believe you need to completely gut your laptop to put that on.

    as he shows the back of the lcd,the m14x red casing seems a lil diffrent then the normal nebula red,looks like sticker/skin ..although m not sure ..and if you would notice the touchpad buttons are also red which i dont seem to find in other red m14x!!

    The only downside is you lose the nice rubber touch.

    Not really a downside , after few years later you machine still like brand new when you peel off those stickers. I rather damage the sticker then soft touch, just personal opinion.

    Yea but thats kind of like people who buy a nice leather couch and then cover it with plastic, use it for years and then sell it and never experience the nice leathery touch of the couch :)

    Couldn't of said it better myself :D

    I love the rubberised palm area. That, combined with the keyboard, makes typing long essays quite comfortable.
