What possible use could this machine have?
The only thing this device is good for is looking pretty. Although we do seem to have a disproportionate number of idiots in the world who purchase useless techno products just because they look pretty.... Just look at the iPad... :laugh:
www.eurocom.com/ Enjoy :toast:
i tried the new m11x r3, m14x r1, m17x r3, m18x r1. what i want to say is: they are awsome
and this is not an advertisment
lol
But that said, Alienware serves as a nice floor in which higher end mobile gaming rigs can be measured against.
What possible use could these cars have?
The only thing that devices are good for is looking pretty...........
well, i do love an M1A1 main battle tank or an AH64D Apache attack helicopter more than any racing car........lol
someone just wants a PC that can be more easily taken than a tower chassis and handles their workload and gaming needs and got some cool features --- the best choice is still Alienware. myself as an example: i often need to work in dark environment with only display lights on, so i need a keyboard with backlits like XArmor U9BL although some others may think backlit is totally bullshit. I like Alienware laptops' keyboard cause only she offers such a beautiful color-customizable option than any other brand.
i used Asus G73JW last year and compared it with Alienware M15x: Asus G73 is lighter and has better cooling and cheaper, but overall build quality is not good as M15x. Now i tried new M11x R3, M14x R1, M17x R3, M18x R1, i have to say that these Aliens are much better than their ancestors, many improvements have been made even comapring to R2 version---check it yourself, you will see how it improves. as sort of a hardcore gamer, if i need to buy an OEM PC, alienware is my only choice---just ignore that stupid TerranForce or something.
AW sucks and there are much better gaming laptop manufacturers like Asus and Sager(Clevo based). Even MSI had a Whitebook with 2 3870 gpus.
I got ripped off big time and swore I would never support them again.
I have a Sager notebook that has a 260m, 9700 cpu, and 4 Gb ram that I picked up early 2010 for $1000 and its been fantastic. I game on it and it stays exceptionally cool compared to my old M9700 that was on fire just from booting up.
and sager is no where to buy in my region
and sorry for my poor English and misunderstood to previous posts, i'm not working for dell
peace
Still doesn't explain how you managed to get your hands on the newest Alienwares if you are not working for them.
subjectively, if you need more vertical pixels, it is a better suit to you.
but in reality it is impossible to objectively say 1200 vertical pixels is "better"
than 1080, it's just more.
some cars hold more gas, some computers have more memory.
some games have more coders.
subjectively that may sway your decision one way or the other, but
that is entirely dependent on your personal needs and preferences.
some people may want a screen that fits the format that ALL HD media is
released in. some people want more vertical pixels. that would decide
what better suits them, but not which is better.
so there, i think - is why the industry hasn't accepted it. it's not true.
So, if 1920x1200 does everything 1920x1080 does plus more, how is it not the better resolution?
The industry hasn't accepted it only because there is a bigger profit margin on 1080p screens, not because of type of inferiority.
