    How's your gaming Setup? Do you sit in the couch or at a desk?

    Hey everyone :)

    I was wondering how you guys sit infront of your Alienware Laptop.

    Personally I like to vary my usage from sitting at my desk to sometimes my couch.

    Feel free to post a picture of how your Alienware is placed at your gaming location, that would be cool :)

    Sincerly

    Thats how it looked few months ago.. It hasnt changed much since then.. I have a 26" HDTV hooked to my M15x, Though now I have a Razer DeathAdder (Sold my MX rev mouse because I broke it :p). Eventually will upgrade to a dual monitor set-up with two LED monitor :D
    I'll keep you guys updated :p
    But I really do game anywhere, in front of my tv, on the dinner table.. As long as I can use my mouse, it's cool for gaming :D

    Always the external keyboard when sitting at this desk. Lol, like i've said before - an M17x would never fit on this desk, i'd need a new bedroom altogether.

    Couch, bed, desk, table, floor, wherever. But I'll have most of my stuff on my desk.

    It's a desk, an uncomfortable unrelaxing desk. I am currently scheming of more comfortable ways to game and will definitely be showing it off if I succeed :D

    I use wireless mouse keyboard. Unless I need to use the laptop keyboard. I can lay on the couch or lazyboy connected to the 42 tv.
