Ok well i recently ordered one of these bad boys online with the i7, Hd+ and upgraded the wifi plus a 1 year advanced warrenty and came out to be 1400 tax included.
Little did i know that calling a representative is so much cheaper and they have some xbox deal going on i could have haggled in T.T, anyways my question is should i sit on my order and just be paitent or what?
Sorry i have never ordered a laptop new let alone one breaking 1400 dollars. This is my laptop i decided to buy for my trip to college in the fall so if i have to cancel the order and get a better deal by all means i have about a month and ten days so its not a time crunch scenario.
If any of you guys have some advice on this or a Rep who could help me i would definently appreciate it. Thanks

Oy there!
I was investigating the Xbox360 deal too, and its on till the 14th of this month. Now the catch is, if you opt for the deal you get only the base model of the m14x, which can certainly do with a bit of upgrading; for example, the wireless card is the base one[which sucks bigtime].
If you don't mind all that, I think its definitely worth it since you're getting an xbox free dammit!
Actually, if you can post details about your config, I might be able to help you out further, so just post it right here.

Actually that might not be the case. People have actually gotten theit own configuration with an xbox 360 on the side. You just have to find a rep willing to help you out.

Thanks nkdv and at darkness, your right i have seen alot of posts like "im paying more than the stock costs how about you just add it in" and the reps do, so people are getting them you just need a good rep to do it -
You're welcome
It looks like you've gone for the base system, with just the display+wireless card upgrades right? I think if you find a rep you can get that with the xbox deal, but I suggest you hurry there isn't much time left on that offer!
If you can't find a rep though, I guess you shouldn't sacrifice those essentials just for an xbox lol.
P.S. I hope this isn't too much to ask of you, but I was considering the same deal for a purchase this month, so if you can find a rep, I'd be honored if you can refer him to me -
Ya sure i think i saw someone advertising a good rep gonna have to find his post. if it works ill refer him to you
hmm decisions... what should i do?
