In short: No. In long: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
so in otherwords after a week I can get the fucking thing to start.? is that whay you are saying.?
if you're looking for shitty quality and don't give a shit about getting anywhere near the most out of your money, then sure otherwise, look at MSI or ASUS
I heard alien wares actually have good cooling systems in their laptops if you customize your order. Is this true or not?
They're not worth the fucking cost, and I've heard they use cheap-ass parts. IMO the cases are fugly anyways. Also, for the love of God stop putting full stops (.) before question marks. It's really annoying to read...

For a laptop that's not bad. [editline]07:11AM[/editline] If you want a good priced gaming laptop, just go for Sager or Asus, Asus' are cheaper, but Sagers are a lot more powerful, however slightly more expensive, still cheaper than Alienware though.

[QUOTE=pieman26;25344348]so in otherwords after a week I can get the fucking thing to start.? is that whay you are saying.?[/QUOTE] No, they are saying no because of it being Alienware, instead of actually giving you help. I myself know nothing about Alienware laptops, but perhaps someone who does will come in to your thread.
[QUOTE=theLazyLion;25344367]I heard alien wares actually have good cooling systems in their laptops if you customize your order. Is this true or not?[/QUOTE] I guess for the hardware they are using but they still can't seem to grasp the concept that to make a laptop what it is, you need to use low power components. Not the best and most power consuming hardware on the market.

rich bastard
I've heard their netbooks are actually really powerful, some of the best around
[QUOTE=Itszutak;25344464]I've heard their netbooks are actually really powerful, some of the best around[/QUOTE] for a netbook yes, but IIRC they get 30-40 FPS on mid range games even at the tiny res it uses and to do that you had to customise to over $1000
[QUOTE=Itszutak;25344464]I've heard their netbooks are actually really powerful, some of the best around[/QUOTE] its still a fucking rip off. Who the hell buys a gaming netbook?
[QUOTE=Itszutak;25344464]I've heard their netbooks are actually really powerful, some of the best around[/QUOTE] you're thinking of the M11x.

[QUOTE=Ehmmett;25344558]Paraphrasing OP: "My PC is already the best, now I want to waste money on a laptop too." How about you donate to the less fortunate.
