    I generally despise alienware junk. I used a Primordial Satyr as my last gaming tower, it's cheapish but not full of as many hardware issues as an alienwhorez

    Alienware was overpriced but good before the Dell buyout. Now they're just rebranded XPS systems with a markup.

    I've heard good things about the Newegg Build-It-Yourself Z500.

    Mom: (Attempts to brush Maud's hair with her hands) Listen, I want that long face gone, Mister. You know the drill.
    Maud: Yes mom. I'll get the handsaw and tomahawk from the shed.
    Mom: Don't forget to set the woodchipper up in the back yard. Is the body already in the bathtub?
    Maud: Not yet, still in the trunk. I used that plastic wrap to minimise forensics like you taught me.
    Mom: Good boy. Anyway, who'd you finish off this time?
    Maud: Steve.
    Mom: Not that Steve from down at the hardware store...
    Maud: No, not THAT Steve. You know, that cop Steve who's always taking our pot and smoking it himself.
    Mom: Well I'll be! You've sure got us in a pickle this time!
    Maud: I got his gun, cuffs and radio and threw them off the bridge on the way home. Fingers are removed but the teeth are still in there.
    Mom: Well that's a start, I guess. Now get out to that shed - there's work to be done! Here - take a cookie. I've made a little monkey face out of M&M's just the way you like it.
    Maud: Can I have a Dr. Pepper, too?
    Mom: Don't push it.

    NewEgg Equivalent to X51 ~$650
    Inspiron 620/620s + Addon Card from Newgg ~$400

    Just two alternatives. You can also build one that's a bit more higher-end that's fairly inexpensive.

If not, forget about it.

    The of the most important things to remember about LDC - the majority of us kinda grew up with the site. A good bit of us started when we were about 15 or so and never left. We're now in our early twenties. Some of us know each other in real life, others through the Internet. This is history, trust, and familiarity that isn't created overnight. Persist and don't quit. Unlike other forums, we aren't quick to support new users.

    NO.

    Livin' in fear of the banhammer. It's as if I live in the UK.
