Alienware laptop or New Desktop
So I was shopping for new hardware and i saw the "i need a new laptop thread". I had looked at alienware before but heard nothing but shit about them and their service. This was about a year ago. Have you any of you guys bought a laptop from them in the last year? If so, what do you think?
I do light gaming (Warcraft 3) so I need a machine that will do RPG's or RTS games, no need for Doom 3 horsepower. I know I would need a desktop for that. |

I dont have a laptop, I have an alienware area 51 desktop and I have nothing but good things to say about both their service, and their products. Never had a complaint about my computer or its performance,.

Never had one but I would guess Alienwear is a waste of money on a trendy/fancy brand.

Why pay extra money for an Alien themed computer case?
These guys can sell you a smokin laptop or build you a monster desktop. I just got a editing system from them and they are 11 on a scale of 1 to 10 http://www.dvline.com |

Hiya patmccrotch,
Alienware Laptop all the way!!! The Sentia weighs only 3.8 pds., 4 hours of battery life, has a 7200rpm drive, fire wire, 3 USB, DVD/CDR etc...The only downfall is that this unit has a 64 shared video card. If you do not do major gaming its perfect! This is a Centrino based unit The other Alienware laptop is the Area51 which weighs around 9 pds, but its more powerful. The downfall is the weight and low battery life which is like 1.5 hours. This is a P4 HT based unit. Hope this sheds some light... --=Chipmunk=--

the reason i like the alien's is that they are upgradable, vs the dell's and toshiba's. |
