After a little bit of searching I found the Alienware M11x R2,  it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. The M11x is very small and lightweight but it has a lot of horsepower in its' tiny little frame. First off here are the specs

1. Intel Core i5 1.1GHz
2. 8GB of Memory
3. 320GB HD
4. Nvidia Geforce M335 1GB Memory
5. >5lb.

Yes the speed is a lot slower than my desktop but it has a lot more cores to process with making it more efficient.  This little guy can crunch through a lot of data without being bogged down too much. Once I got it I started loaded all the data I needed for when I'm on the road. Once the data and applications were loaded up it was time to test this thing. I mostly bought this computer to do some development and a little bit of gaming. So I mostly tested against what I already had. The applications I compared against were:

• Autodesk 3DS Max 2011/2012
• Blender 2.5
• Visual Studio 2010
• Netbeans 6.9
• Lightworks 

3DS Max ran smooth on this machine the render times were slightly slower than my desktop, but that is expected since I use my GPU to render and my GPU on my Desktop is just a little larger than Gefore M335. 

I also had some issues with the M335 chipset as it was causing some of the applications to hang and crash for some unknown reason. As I researched some more into it the Optimus technology and I found out it has a couple of issues.  Low and behold Nvidia released some new drivers for M335 and so far I'm not having any issues at all. Gaming wise City of Heroes and World of Warcraft ran really well on this computer. I haven't tried other games yet since this laptop doesn't have a DVD drive in it, and I haven't gotten around to getting a portable DVD drive. 

Alienware has definitely made a small light weight PC that can still preform well. I would recommend this laptop to anyone in the market.
