how unfortunate. I used to really like and lauded Alienware's rise to success and fame. So sad it's left its roots and become a corporate slave now.

You know it could turn out that Alienware will become better and actually deliver their products on time...and they will have better tech support and better eveyrthing. It could be seen as an improvement. Dell did not get big because they sucked...they got big because they knew how to handle customers.
