Don't buy from alienware

I myself got an alienware laptop, and I've run into a TON of problems:

-heavy

-overheating, which caused more problems:

* instability

* reboots, shutdowns, blue screens

* slow mode (CPU slowing down a lot to cool)

* noisy

-graphics card went boom

-DVD burner went boom, I sent it back a month ago, I'm still waiting for the replacement

The support is quite slow and the shipping delays are even more.

I'm very disappointed at Alienware and am having a MUCH better time with my Asus.

Never buying from Alienware again, ever.
