Alienware sure can cost a pretty penny...

Congrats on the laptop though it's really nice to have one. Careful though, in the past month I've spilled milk and water on my laptop

Actually my sister has a dell laptop, and my bro has a Sony Vaio. The dell has been nothing but problems...the Vaio is ok... I myself bought a gateway desktop 2 years ago and its the best damn computer i have owned no problems what so ever....thats why i bought a gateway again hoping the same thing...
