    Seems very "troll" like of a response Jelly :(

    I see nothing wrong with where a product is sold its what goes into it that counts. They also sell Canon and Nikon cameras as well, does that make these products any less desireable to buy as well?

    I specd out the Cosco system($2,799 - $200 = $2,599) at alienware.com. The same system ion Alienwares site comes to $2,449. Costco is $150 more exspensive even with their $200 discount, lol.

    Am I missing something? :eek:

    I believe you missed the oddessy bag.. even then though.. the price from Alienware directly is still ~50 cheaper. On the other hand you get 2 years of warranty from Costco and a 90 day return policy with no strings attached.

    One of the key perks to buying electronics from Costco is the 90 day no questions asked return. That is more than ANY Best Buy, Circuit City or in fact AW. And the best thing is you dont even have to ship it back just bring it to one of their stores.
