I rather build my own PC that would do just as well as an alienware and be a lot cheaper. If you want something done, sometimes you just have to do it yourself.

ever quoted out a DIY notebook? those things arent cheap. desktops are always cheaper to build yourself, but i have yet to find a way to build a notebook cheaper than buying one from a reseller

Well I was just talking about PCs. Not any notebooks. I never actually built one and don't plan on it either.

Alienware has always been overpriced. Dell's XPS line is also overpriced. The new XPS costs $10,000. Just insane.
