I don't have an Alienware, yet I'm planning on getting one after I work over the summer.

Why do you always change the topic of conversation to your dick, paul? Trying to confensate for something?


Anyways... The alien is 9.6 pounds... how would you like to carry that around? Coupled with an inferior video card, and a desktop processor that would easily burn a hole in your shorts, I wouldn't drool over this one for very long.

*goes back to drooling over inspiron 8200*

I came across an illegal technology ring website where they were selling Dell 8200 Inspiron laptops for <$300, fully stocked. Some nice flat screen plasma monitors for only $250.
