I used to import and sell alienware before (before it was acquired by Dell). I also know saan sila nagpapagawa ng notebooks sa China. hehe. Nung nabili kasi ng Dell naging jologs na sya .

Fancy lang ang hitsura nya. Just build one with the same specifications (with good brands i.e. Gigabyte for the mobo, SATA6G, SSD-RAID, Kick-ass vidcard, etc.) and you'll get the same, if not better performance.

The dell dude you talked to was just dumbed down to believe Alienware is better (because their job is to make the consumers believe it is so).

The only computer worth the above-average price is Apple (since their software is different to begin with). All PCs are PCs.
