The only thing scarier than how fast it is, is how expensive it is. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm sure they've done a good thing but like I always say, "Buy the parts, build it yourself". Considering you know how to, you save a bundle and have exactly what you want in it.

Actually, on Alienware's site, I spewed up much more costly machines, with prices well over 6000$ [img]smile.gif[/img]
But yeah, what Bokken said, do it yourself. I bought the parts and build my own computer for some 1000$ give or take a few, and when I checked on Alienware, the almost identical machine was 1450$.
