    We're talk IRC channel here... talkin support, talkin real time connection with community members with tons of experience.

    I am surprised there isn't already one around. It seems the Alienware community is quite a 1337 community. We rock! So I was thinking IRC would be great for us. It would add a more level of support, a new communication tool, and more. Starting I would like to get peeps from the M17x forums, it just seems many dont read the general forums. :p
    I sill think if done right it could be a great addition to the community.
    I personally also think NBR should do one. :)

    There are ones I frequent for my cell phone, support for certain software, game consoles. They all have helped me with the additional communication, I have learned alot. So I figured it wouldn't hurt to try here too.

    Server: EFNet
    Channel: #alienware

    Never used irc? You need a client like mirc. mIRC: Internet Relay Chat client

    I am looking for someone with a BNC and can keep the channel. Maybe a MOD here has a BNC that would be the preferred.

    I hope this works out, we have potential
