As for support, it's CRAP. Usually, I've had to spend at least 45 minutes on the phone with them since they barely understand english or what I'm trying to describe to them technically. To be fair though, the last call I had with them was only 15 minutes, but this was just to see what was going on with my system which at first I was told wasn't even there (it was).

Meanwhile..the one desktop I DID put together myself has not had a single problem in 4 years..ZERO issues. If your ever thinking of buying an Alienware LAPTOP for high end graphic design or gaming or anything DON'T, find something else their laptops are garbage for high end stuff.

**Disclaimer, I can't speak for Alienware desktops as I have never owned one can you tell I'm a bit frustrated with their laptops? ** =)
That's nuts! If you spend over $10,000 on the system, you get a different level of support (U.S.-based), from what I understand.
