    I see the M11x now supports 16GB, albeit a little slower memory. I was hoping that the M14x might support 16GB if the modules were available. I'll wait and see if that information comes up in any of the reviews.

    I run several VMs and having the extra memory helps quite a bit. My work subsidizes the cost of my computer so I could offset the cost of the 16GB, but I want the M14x not the M11x.
