Question:
Just order a ASUS M6Ne- Woo hoo !
Just ordered myself a ASUS M6Ne....Finally !
After a month or two of thinking, changing my mind backfliping on my every choice, I have finally got my arse in gear and ordered this beauty.
I found it on one of ASUS distributers sites (http://www.synnex.com.au/pm/ASUS/NB/M6SNe170DD58PG.htm), and I then got my local computer store (www.computeralliance.com.au) to order it in. According to the distributor they only have 2 in stock in Australia, hopefully I will soon be the owner of one of them.
Hopefully be picking it up this weekend !!
I will post a detailed review, pics and benchmarks in a week or two !

Answer:
2 Mondays ago I ordered an ASUS M6ne for myself here in the U.S. But it was put on backorder [V]
Hopefully I will get it later today because im taking a little trip to maine. The reason I prefer the M6Ne over the M6BN is because it has an ATI Radeon 9700 Moble. and I prefer it over the M6BNe and the M6BN again because it has a bigger screen with a lower resolution [:0]
Making me feel like it has its bang for its buck

Answer:
I just picked up my M6Ne. And I'm over the moon.
The high res screen is fantastic. And its very quick and responsive. I haven't had to much time to play with it yet, but I will write back in a few days with a full review, pics, benchmark results etc etc.
Final price was $3660, a good $150 cheaper than the RRP. Don't know why but was happy to accept it :)
