IMO, No.. do not get an alienware.. Too pricey.


what is the ABS website? is it abscomputers.com? Are they really the parent company of newegg?

I never buy prebuilt systems, I always build my own. However here lately, I've been doing a lot of dell deals for various friends and family and was just wondering who ABS is, I think I would trust them to build a pc for a friend or relative if a dell deal wasn't going on and I didn't feel like messing with it and the price was relatively low on parts in comparison to buying them separate.

Thanks.

Anyway, I say build it yourself or if you don't feel comfortable building your own, get a friend to build it for you. Not only do you get one-on-one Tech Support and spec suggestions, not to mention low prices, you also have the educational expiereince so that you can build your own next time.
