Okay so like me many have came around to the time hey lets buy a new computer! Now typically dell comes to mind for people who are clueless about computer as well as hp and compaq, but unless we have alot of money we toss it away on alien ware which at cheapest are $800. So i've was looking on alien ware since appearently they're the "best" and thought about getting the aurora 5500 for 1,549 now i would have honestly wanted to get the aurora alx but it was 5,579 so that was out the option. This was the dream computer

this is the one i would have gotten most likely http://reviews.cnet.com/sc/31570880-2-200-0.gif it's better than majority of the things the major corperations put out.
Any who i was talking to my computer nerdy friend who told me don't waste money alien ware are good but over price once he showed what he could make it was = to the aurora alx which is compairable to a ferrari with the inside of a bently. So basically i'm getting the 5k cpu for 1.5k.

When purchasing a computer realise you're paying for the name brand, and it honestly is cheaper to build a computer and usually you get a better kind of performance, but what you get in high quality parts you lose in programs and service. Though alien ware is good and i would recomend them they are over priced but not over rated. http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/ is a place that makes really great computer for cheap prices, but still thought id share my personnel experince you can go back to laughing at me XD
