Cnet reports: "Dell is taking steps to promote Alienware PCs on its Web site as the PC maker tries to collaborate more--rather than compete outright--with its Alienware unit.
Dell has added the Area-51 m9750 to its gaming laptop Web site, according to a Dell company blog.
"The Alien invasion has continued, with the addition of the Area-51 m9750 to the Dell gaming laptop Web site lineup," according to the post. The 17-inch notebook offers two 512MB GeForce 8700m GT cards as an option."

Ever since i learned how to build my own rig, these companies have served me virtually no purpose. Alienware's rigs look pretty fly on the outside though.

i agree. but you can buy the clevo barebones laptops that all these companies use and buy the components seperately. not as easy as a desktop due to the space and heat involved with working with a laptop.

its doable.......just not worth it for the performance.

for the 4-5k you spend on one of those laptops youre only getting about 1/4 of the performance of a desktop of equal value.

not my idea of "worth every penny"

How do you people like their cases? I HATE their cases! I own an XPS now and not an alienware because the case looks like something that has no class like the rest of my room. My entire room is simple classy metallic/black/wood. I don't want some alien-looking computer in it. Sorry.
