[QUOTE=sp00ks;27568642]Are you regularly setting them on fire or something? You could build at least 2 computers that has at least as much power as an Alienware for the same price.[/QUOTE] dude it's a fucking office you don't do custom computer builds for a god damn office

[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;27555010]It causes extreme heat environments, making extreme cold environments much easier to handle :science:[/QUOTE] I need to start running my 24" iMac more. With the winter regularly throwing -25 to -30 Celsius at me and an entire wall of my room being windows, it gets pretty damn cold in here :v:
[QUOTE=Lazor;27575064]dude it's a fucking office you don't do custom computer builds for a god damn office[/QUOTE] You shouldn't buy fucking Alienware for use in an office either.
and whys that?
[QUOTE=.ediT;27585744]and whys that?[/QUOTE] Too much power for your average illiterate office monkey. And they don't give discounts to businesses.
oh so now we're assuming you're buying alienwares for an office full of bankers and accountants that don't need the power?
You simply don't buy Alienware. PERIOD.

You kidding me? If it's shiny, looks cool and costs an arm and BOTH your legs, it doesn't matter what's inside it! It's OBVIOUSLY going to be the most powerful thing ever! More expensive MUST mean better. ... :downs:

[QUOTE=.ediT;27587064]Are you one of those retards that thinks you should buy custom builds for offices?[/QUOTE] Nope we are the retards who think that for an office the best way would be to find a company that offers nice computers with a bulk discount that can be fixed in-house with no proprietary parts.
such as?

[QUOTE=.ediT;27587064]Are you one of those retards that thinks you should buy custom builds for offices?[/QUOTE] The only retard here is you. Where have I said anything about custom builds?
custom builds for offices are a waste of time. it's time consuming and you have no formal support.
[QUOTE=codenamecueball;27587812]custom builds for offices are a waste of time. it's time consuming and you have no formal support.[/QUOTE] My company has about 200 custom builds on the floor right now e5300 2gb Gskill ram G43 asus 320gb western digital black coolermaster psu 460w
I'd rather have 200 Dell's with business support, so if one goes down, it's out and back quickly.
[QUOTE=codenamecueball;27587976]I'd rather have 200 Dell's with business support, so if one goes down, it's out and back quickly.[/QUOTE] We do use dell support for our remote offices, but these builds are quite solid and give me something fun to do every now and then
Dell tends to be quite cheap when buying in bulk for businesses. My old school bought a hundred i5 inspiron laptops for only $1000 each, when the original one costs more than $1500

[QUOTE=B!N4RY;27587736]The only retard here is you. Where have I said anything about custom builds?[/QUOTE] Where have I said anything about looks meaning anything? Where did I say that the price tag makes Alienware a suitable option for offices? Go cool off and come back later.
Dell HP and Compaq are what you buy for business.
[QUOTE=.ediT;27587064]Are you one of those retards that thinks you should buy custom builds for offices?[/QUOTE] If you need high end machines for an office why not go with Falcon Northwest? They are way better then Alienware in nearly everyway. If you need boutique computers they have been among the best for a while. They have cases made out of metal and that don't look like a damn aliens head.

Compaq and HP are one entity
[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;27589675]Dell HP and Compaq are what you buy for business.[/QUOTE] Our company uses Dells.
I use an Alienware laptop. It's hard to find a powerful laptop with an AMAZING warranty. I had some issues and they came and replaced the mobo for free. They have amazing support. Also, if you call them, you can haggle the prices extremely low. [url]http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/456885-aw-dell-ordering-advice-how-save.html[/url]
