    Just thought it was cool to see an Alienware Laptop on Smallville, Lionel Luther was using one.
    Seen plenty of Dells on TV but never an Alienware.

    It is pretty cool to see them. Alienware is featured in several games; in FEAR the laptops are Alienwares.

    In one season of 24 (a show on FOX), the bad guy was using an Alienware.

    They sure were using Alienware 24 is my fav, it is interesting to see the type of PCs & notebooks used on different shows, do you think the companies pay to have them use their product?

    Absolutely. Anywhere you see a name on TV (movies, etc) it's most likely paid for.

    The vast majority of the time, when you see a PC/notebook on a cartoon/TV/movie it's a Mac.

    It makes the scene completely unrealistic to me, but what can you do?
