who here would NOT choose alienware......

[gigapet]

if you had unlimited $$$ to use for the purchase of a desktop system from an online company. If you would not go with them why? and who would you go with?


I DONT THINK I MADE THIS CLEAR: I AM NOT BUILDING MY OWN SYSTEM IT IS TOO MUCH OF A HEADACHE FOR ME. BTDT

 

[DaiShan]

I would make my own same as usual, I like building them, and I can pick the components I want (read top of the line) I wouldn't skimp.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

They're too bloated. I wouldn't buy an Alienware system at all. If I had the money, I would buy all the parts stand-alone and build the system myself.

[blackdogdeek]

in what way would you say they are bloated?

 

[T3C]

i hate the idea of using a pc that someone other than me built

 

[notfred]

I would get a G5.

 

[boyRacer]

id build it myself. its a freakin computer.

 

[Corporate Thug]

even if i has infinite $, i wouldnt choose alienware cuz i enjoy building systems and overpriced is overpriced regardless of how much money you have

me too.. Also I hate that they think they are so "leet" that is why I would not buy one.

 

[bandana163]

I could build a better 'dream machine' than Alienware or any such company.

 

[GasX]

I wrote Alienware off when I saw them listed in an interior design magazine as selling multi-colored computers.

 

[Yossarian]

The only problem is that they're massively overpriced. If I had infinite money, sure I'd get a system from them.

 

[filmmaker]

I would spend the extra money I would save building my own system on something that I need more than a bloated system. Like food or gas.

 

[Electric Amish]

As others said, I'd build my own.

 

[DurocShark]

Might go for one of their lappys though. 😀

 

[gigapet]

so besides the prevailing preference to build it oneself what if that wasnt an option and you had to buy it online assembled.

 

[TheBoyBlunder]

I might get a lappy from 'em, but I wouldn't touch a desktop with a 10 foot pole (unless it was a gift). And even if it was a gift, I'd probably buy a different case and transplant everything.

you want an alienware dont you? 😛

 

[Lager]

I would buy Dell, Alienware sounds like a airport in my room.

 

[pennylane]

I like building my own too.

 

[isaacmacdonald]

I wouldn't. Aesthetically speaking, I find them fairly unattractive.
