    Not to make things worse for you, but, well, as your dad probably knows there are plenty of businesses that were considered "stablished" and turned out to be rip-offs.

    Madoff, Stanford, WorldCom, Enron, etcetera, anyone?

    Alienware is solid though ;)

    I passed by their corporate hq in miami last week (went to my uncles for a bbq).

    AW has been around for a long time. I remember always wanting one of their desktops back when I was a teenager (i'm 29 now lol)
