    Now i dont want this to turn unto a flame alienware thread but im curious why they never come up in the forums from what i read.

    Are they just not offering anything at a decent price still? I know they overcharge alot at times but i would think they have maybe one model worth looking at

    People are finally starting to think. Alienware rebrands notebooks. You can get these notebooks from other resellers for much cheaper than Alienware, and with better service.

    They charge you about 1k extra for a slightly different paint job. And....thats about it.

    Very overpriced basically, same spec laptops can often be gotten for half the price form another brand.
