Tempting.........

I have tested one of my mates, and am choosing between the 7700 Laptop Series, or a high end desktop from them. Although a system with similar specs from another site halves the price Alienware offer.

I'm looking at getting one of their high end desktops.
What other sites you looking at?

There is www.overclockers.co.uk which have some nice ones in, the one I fancy is the ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£1000 < nearly AMD 64 3500 with some good other specs.

AndrewJ · 10-01-2005, 23:06

Nope Alienware charge more, they come with Xp home sp2 as standard, but monitor is pay extra, and the keyboard and mouse you can opt not to have but its ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£70 in total on top of order to have them.

And dude, if you're going to buy a system, it's probably worth spending the extra and getting an alienware if you're not confident about building your own. Whatever you do, DON'T buy one from overclockers, you'll end up with a box full of RMA'd crap that you'll forever be trying to phone them about (and as I've said before, getting through to them is near enough impossible).

AndrewJ · 11-01-2005, 11:04

RMA'd?? sorry heard that term probally know it but blonde moment...

As for your post on Overclockers you speak from experience I gather Bifta...

good job I didnt order.. I will double check up with Alienware then.
