On Sunday, October 23, I bought A.L.I.C.E. at the Amiwest Show 2017.  I paid $575 (discounted $25) plus sales tax.  I had been eagerly awaiting a portable Amiga solution since A.L.I.C.E. was announced at a previous show.  Here is what I found when I unboxed the laptop for the first time.  This A.L.I.C.E. used a 15.3 inch screen, an I3 processor, and a 250 gig SSD drive.  For more information on the various A.L.I.C.E. models, go to
