    "Amazing desktop replacement"

    by cli006 on July 19, 2006

    Pros: SLI, great performance for gaming, fast processor, great screen

    Cons: sound quality isn't top notch,

    Summary: g-funk2k's review should not be valid in my opinion. He obviously does not own a m9700 or else he wouldn't have given it a laughable "2 out of 10" rating for this wonderful laptop. He instead, recommended an Apple instead. I find this absolutely hilarious. NO APPLE LAPTOP CAN MATCH the 10k++ benchmarks this laptop received on 3Dmark 05. Check out notebookforums.com for proof.

    g-funk2k also claims it's ugly. I'd hate to see your wardrobe because obviously you have a horrible sense of taste. The laptop is very eye-catching. It looks great and not overly-flashy. The illuminated alienware logo on the shell really sets the whole package off.

    g-funk2k says it's bulky which I believe is entirely not true. It's VERY thin and light weight for a DESKTOP REPLACEMENT which is what it's made to be. You don't know anything about this laptop. You've never held one, used one, and played a game on one OBVIOUSLY. Why write a review on a product you've never used?

    I do have to admit that it's a little pricey (Not any more expensive than it's competitors) but it's VERY well built and wired. You get what you pay for. If you think you can build your own, then go for it and save yourself some money. If not, then I highly recommend this laptop for gaming, media, work, and/or everyday needs.

    Do you work for alienware or something? The spec sheet they gave me showed a score of 8.5k on 3dmark05. Thats great that you got such a good one but i only hope you dont run into trouble down the line. Then you will see what we are talking about.

    Well I have held one, used one, and played a game on one so I suppose my oppinion is valid. My machine has never worked correctly, the tech support was worthless and customer service is beyond worthless. My experience with Alienware has been nothing short of HORRIBLE!!!

    To anyone considering buying this piece of junk, I suggest you google "Alienware Sucks"... It is all true! Don't make the same $3,000 mistake I did.
