I don't know about you, but I own an XPS and its win.
it's*

So is my custom built desktop, and it was at least half the price of Nathan's new laptop(if you bought the parts now it'd be even cheaper). Better specs too.

Not to mention, paying 1k for a brand name is ridiculous, ffc found same spec laptop for £900.

O.P. RE: Which one?
But it looks like shit. Another main factor is smartbay on the alienware which no other laptops have. Also its fully user upgradeable, slot new gfx card in, cpu etc no problem.
plus it doesnt have the bling factor and the cool lights lol. (8)

My point is, you're paying £1000 more because it says 'Alienware' on it.

RIGHT, that must be why Alienware does not dominate the laptop market. DOH!

Lets put it this way :

Alienware = Overpriced with an alien skull, some lights and a wannabe design.
Vaio = Overpriced with no alien skull, good looking design.
Most brands = Reasonably priced, no skull, different lights and good looking design.

I hope you enjoy your laptop but I also would like to think that futurely you'd handle money more wisely. Especially, money that is not yours.

It's too heavy, runs too hot, and dies way too soon without AC power to seriously be considered a laptop. These things are just small form factor PCs.
