Hey guys. I recently bought my HP laptop, and my friend bought a Alienware mx14 around the same time. We've been going back and forth for some time now about whether or not he should've got one. I personally, think every Alienware product is overpriced, not to say they aren't great machines, but they charge more because they can. He claims they are better for gaming and have better build qualities, which they are and do, but they charge $600 more than a normal brand name with the same or better hardware. I really think Alienware charges more because of the big brand name, and their sales are probably mostly loyalty sales. Does anybody else think the same thing? I think Alienwares are great machines, but charging more for the same or worse hardware can only mean that they're doing it for the brand. Not trying to start a flaming war, but I'm getting tired of trying to show him that they aren't the best for what he uses a laptop for. He games like once a week, and thats what he payed the extra money for, and he knew that beforehand. Anyway, hope to hear from you guys.
