    the only reason to buy from here i think is that you can get it faster. You can even get a better price directly with Dell.

    Microcenter has been an Alienware partner for a while now. The one in NJ has a little section just for Alienware merchandise.

    For those who can't use nice coupons or don't know about them, the ticket price plus a mere 3.5% tax in NJ isn't a bad deal.

    The nice thing about getting your alienware at Micro Center that you can walk out of the door with your PC. So although it may cost more to buy here, you should remember that. Because for people like myself, who just bought a m17-r2 for 2 grand+ I still have to wait a a whole month for m PC to get to me. :confused: But it's just that you can't customize your PC all that much when you buy them from Micro-Center, its nice however that they come pretty well sepc'ed IMO, i mean they could be alot worse, lol. They often go for mid-range, not low or high.
