Sweet. Wish I had the kinda $$ for a setup like that.
I've always wanted to own an Alienware system.

(maybe someday)

Nice...

But you could've made your own. :cool:

:nuts:

::Rant on::
Yeah...(sorry if I sound condescending...) but you can usually build your own of anything, (houses, cars..bongs...The list goes on).
::Rant off::

There's a reason I buy them. I have built systems in the past, 7 actually. From servers to Linux boxes to media centers, I just like Alienware and what they stand for. I have three Alienware systems and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone and I will continue to buy them as long as I can afford them. :biggrin:

Made an update to the OP.

I suppose, I just find that building your own gets you more power cheaper, and is more rewarding.
Just my opinion, although there are ultra expensive systems like this that you would struggle to build yourself.

A system like that wouldn't be that hard to build. It'd just be a drain on the wallet. Otherwise, nice setup. Every computer in my home from my gaming computer to an AMD K6 machine are all hand built by me, except for two computers which are hand-me-down Dells I was given by people I know.

Awesome.

I've always wanted an Alienware laptop. It's really cool to see someone actually buying Alienware's computers, I hear they have great support as well.

Alienware is owned by Dell, but I've heard the same as well. I was considering buying an Alienware laptop myself at one point in time.

They have awesome support past their first tier. I will admit that their first tier support sucks, but who's doesn't!

I absolutely love Alienware and what the company does for their supporters.

The main reason I stay with Alienware is because Alex (COO of Alienware) called me on my phone personally because of an issue that I had with their company's product. He straighented it out for me and really made it worth staying with the company. He went above and beyond. :biggrin:
