Hey,
I'm interested in getting an Alienware Area51 m5550 laptop.
Anyone know if there is someone importing them or someone that can ship them here? Been on the site but it doesn't seem to sell to S.Africa.
Cheers
:cool:

Seems about right. It's actually not much more expensive than the UK price for the equivalent machine. Noone ever accused Alienware of being cheap.

i wouldn't get a quad for gaming, be better off with a higher clocked dual.

For 53K I'd at least want a core i7, Core 2 Duo is old tech now :(

Yeaaaaah you can't really compare. That's a workstation grade laptop, it has a friggin' sketch pad on it and TWO screens, the main one being this really crazy quality screen and the smaller one not being bad either.
Oh, and that's a quadro graphics card in there too.

@PC-Direct, will you be adding support for the i5/i7 CPUs for your custom M17x builds anytime?
