    I called technical support for cosmetic flaw on my bezel. After that was taken care of I inquired about a second R4 for my girlfriend. To my surprise the technical support person offered me these 3 options for a future purchase if ordered through him.


    Option 1: 15% discount
    Option 2: Top of the line anti glare/fingerprint/scratch screen protector & Orion backpack of choice
    Option 3: Mouse and Keyboard combo from alienware website.


    Just though someone else would want to know this

    Thanks, I might give that a try anyway when I'm in the market for a replacement (R5 maybe?)

    It's always good to take this route. Besides the Tech Support Personnel know the PC's a lot.
