It has a lot of flashy lights and gets tons of comments, but my wife spent a few hundred less on her basic Dell machine and it outperforms my machine at just about every task. Perhaps I should have chosen some of the upgrades, but aside from the graphics card, any option the Alienware had could be found elsewhere without paying a premium for the cosmetic enhancements and Alienware name.<br /><br />Oh, and the machine arrived in the mail a month after I ordered it with a cracked case, and it took most of a day to get customer service to talk to me so I could send it back for repair and wait another month to actually get the repaired computer in my hands. It was the worst retail experience of my life.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.com
