I'm trying to hunt down some info about how to perhaps buy a lot of them for resale.
You guys have any suggestions? I have confirmed with a guy at Chieftec that they are involved....

You know what's funny? I bet that most of the people that don't like the new Alienware case are the same people that think they are cool with a black case and different shades of beige CD-ROMs/DVD-ROMs/floppies installed. Now THAT is just outright gay. ;) I give Alienware credit for breaking the mold of boxie cases and doing something different. PC cases now are pretty damn boring.

Though I wouldn't buy an Alienware setup, the case fits perfect with their name. Yet to see a straight on shot, but I bet it looks like an Alien with the black lower areas as its eyes.

JackBurton I am one of those people with a black case and beige CDROMS, but then again I don't sit around and ooh and ahh at my computer case because it looks so cool. To me, a computer is a tool that I use for applications not a car that I drive down the road to impress my friends. In fact my box is in a enclosed section of my computer desk and I rarely see it. As far as the cool case goes, my son had pencil sharpener that looked like a gorilla eating the pencils when it sharpened them, that was cool.....for about a week.

The new MaximumPC magazine has a review of this beta Alienware PC, including this new case and the nVidia GeForceFX card.

Very sleek.

Too bad they didn't make those black eyes shapes on the side with windows beneath them. You could get the whole glowing eyes look with a light if they did. Then again aliens just have black eyes right so maybe I'm wrong. ;)

LOL...:D I hated the Focus when it first came out but it's grown on me over time. I quite like it, particularly the RS version. :)

I hope some case manufacturers use this for inspiration, hopefully we?ll see some really nice stuff in the near future.
