    if you don't live in a sales tax exempt state yes you do.


    Should take another look in the alienware section then. Another member just the other day had his hinge break and its full of thread about shipping delays on systems being ordered with the 9800m gt. >.> considering nvidia stopped making them it's not much of a surprise.

    I think if you realized the amount of people who do NOT have issues you would be less of a skeptic as to the hinge build quality...
