Guest JoshIcy Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I've been nosy about getting a new laptop and computer lately. And since a lot of what I do is graphically intense like Gaming and Design, maybe even Zbrush and 3ds Max Maya when I get more Mouse-Using. And well... As many of you know, I'm very Sci-Fi oriented. So I started researching Alienware computers, as their design has always interested me. And I looked it up. Apparently the... Alienware m11x Gaming Laptop- 11in Screen ...rounds out to about $900 with all the attachments and bonuses I want (including a smexy looking laptop bag for it). I can add on $300 and get the much larger screen, 17inch IIRC. With monthly payments applicable, it would be great to get. This still rounds out to less than my current laptop cost me with Repair costs etc in the end. So yay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I LOVE AlienWare so much, they're just too expensive for me to get one. If I had the money though, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. Amazing laptops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kratos~ Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 If I were you, I'd probably buy it if it came with standard programs that you want. I'm personally not a big fan of Laptops, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JoshIcy Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 All it is isjust a super mac and Mac can go die. Alienware Laptops use Linux (because most Game Programming is done best on Linux), and Windows Operating Systems. Mac OS does not appear on the OS Choice. What is this Mac you speak of?

Brushfire Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I'd love to see a Mac run CoD (actually, that was a bad example) on max detail... no really, show me it happening. AlienWare's are gaming laptops. Macs are media computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, get that stupid "~" in your name removed. It's embarrassing to the name of Kratos. It is in no way cool or manly. Second of all, Macs are unreliable, and overly fragile. Or rather, pathetic. I'd love to see a Mac run CoD (actually' date=' that was a bad example) on max detail... no really, show me it happening. [/quote'] I lol'd so hard. That was a joke right?

Death Metal Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 I've said it before, I'll say it again. That is one sexy ass laptop, I am even thinking about saving up for one myself since a certain someone peaked my curiosity on the subject. I would only need a little under $300... time to look for some more side work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poseidon© Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 I'd rather build a laptop/desktop, that has way more performance value. But, it's your choice. The only thing that I want is the sexy ass desktop/laptop case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muluck Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 The Dell Corporation currently owns the License to all AlienWare computers.They have as of to date not improved on it since they bought the product a little over two years ago. While the AlienWare may be an incredibly good piece of equipment, the ability to repair and upgrade this software is incredibly scarce.Just make sure you are aware of this before you spend money on this product.

EHN. Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 1.3 ghz is really unimpressive for a price like this. The battery and the RAM look nice, but I really don't need gaming so this isn't the first thing I would've wnated to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
