Alienware: Aurora mALX Notebook

Alienware

Oh good lord I'm drooling at my desk. This Alienware notebook is awesome... And I will never in my life be able to afford one. I'll just keep on drooling because the Aurora mALX aka Elite Assasine starts at just $4,499 with a 19" screen and comes packed with what they call a "Luxurious Ownership Experience." It comes with their Razer Diamond back mouse and Ozma 7 headphones and they also include a leather binder, personalized nameplate a polo shirt and other stuff. This Respawn Recovery means nothing to me. Something about restoring your settings in case of catastrophic failure... actually it creeps me out. Another nice thing they'll do for you is preload up to three of your fav games onto the system so you can start gaming right away. You can send in your own or buy them when your building your system... You'd think for that price they'd just throw the fuckers in no? Now here's an interesting feature. Each mALX owner gets a VIP pass to take a guided tour of Alienware's corporate headquarters and manufacturing plant.... WHY? There's also a built in 1.3 mp video camera for those impromptu videoconferences... I have those all the time. I hate it when I don't have one already built in. Hmmm... It's got a full sized keyboard too. That thing must be a beast! How do you carry it? Who cares. If I could afford to buy that thing I'd sling it on my back everywhere I went... Except rollercoaster. No... I wouldn't do that.
