Sandy is at CES, and she’s officially available. But Dell is not going to make her the only attraction of their beastly mobile warrior, the absolute high-end Alienware notebooks. Dell is launching new M17x and XPS 17 laptops, and besides having Sandy in them, the laptops will also ship with a 17-inch, 1080p panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, perfect for interfacing with NVIDIA’s shutter glasses, and is including it (along with a new NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M for the XPS 17) as premium options.

Dell’s press release doesn’t specify if a set of 3D glasses will come with the new laptops, nor how much the upgrade will cost, but a 3D-capable M17x will start at $1,499 starting January 10th, and a stereoscopic XPS 17 will run $1,449 on February 1st. A simple hunch tells me that it ain going to be affordable anyway, especially when the silver alien head is still stick there.
