Alienware is an American computer hardware company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dell Computer Corporation. It has a reputation for offering the latest technologies for desktops and laptops that are specialized for video editing, audio editing, and especially gaming. The company is based in Miami, Florida, and was founded in 1995 by its current CEO, Nelson Gonzalez, and COO, Alex Aguila. Alienware computers come with a set of Stardock compatible desktop themes preinstalled called AlienGUIse Desktop Manager. I heard from other sources that this is not currently compatible with Windows Vista.Alienware manufactures high-performance desktops, notebooks, media centers, and professional systems. Alienware systems include hardware from Intel, AMD, Nvidia, Creative and many more high-end vendors.Alienware sells high-end laptops to which their most famous is the Area-51m.

The Alienware Aurora mALX is a show-offy laptop. Its 19-inch display is so massive that you need a huge Alienware backpack to carry it around. Its case features an extremely detailed custom airbrush paint job with a ribbon of metallic color that changes when viewed at different angles. And as with all status symbols. The mALX isn’t all bark and no bite, though. With two graphics cards running in a scalable link interface, the mALX achieved the highest frame rates to date on our gaming benchmarks. For hard-core mobile gamers who want to turn a few heads as they frag the competition, the Alienware Aurora mALX is the laptop to buy today! There’s a reason Alienware has opted to include a massive backpack with the Aurora mALX: the beast measures 18.8 inches wide, 13.5 inches deep, and 1.4 inches thick, and it weighs 15.2 pounds–without its AC adapter. The 19-inch display on the Aurora mALX may be a backbreaker, but it’s also a beauty. Though the native resolution of 1,680×1,050 is lower than that of some 17-inch laptops, the screen has plenty of real estate for multitasking, graphic design, or immersive game environments. The screen size alone is awe-inspiring. The display’s glossy finish helped colors pop but was not overly reflective. The laptop’s full-size keyboard and 10-key number pad are very comfortable, even with extended bouts of typing. Above the keyboard sit four launch buttons: one to control the Webcam above the laptop’s screen, one to turn the system’s wireless radio on and off, and two quick-launch keys for e-mail and Web applications. Because of its large case, the Alienware Aurora mALX has room to include nearly every possible connection for audio (headphone, microphone, and S/PDIF jacks), video (S-Video input and output, VGA and DVI ports, and a connector for an external TV antenna), and data (five USB 2.0 ports, one four-pin FireWire port). Networking connections include Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11a/b/g wireless, and a V.92 modem; also an external Bluetooth adapter. Finally, you get a PC Card slot; a 4-in-1 card reader that reads Secure Digital, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro and MultiMediaCard formats; and a tray-loading DVD burner. That’s virtually everything gamers will need, and it’s identical to the list of ports and connections on the M590K Emperor. Also worth noting are all the goodies Alienware throws in with the mALX. In addition to the backpack mentioned above, our box was stuffed with Ozma 7 headphones, a luggage tag, a keychain, a pen, a mouse pad, and a polo shirt–all tagged with the Alienware logo, natch.

alienware aurora m9700

jackminder — Fri, 25 May 2007 13:59:07 +0000

The Aurora m9700’s performance numbers are just as high as its build quality. The notebook is saddled with a mere Turion ML44 processor, but the SLI GPU array enabled 3DMark03 scores above 21,000 and a F.E.A.R. frame rate of 67 fps with the settings maxed out, good enough for a third-place finish. With the display’s subtle color depth and crisp brightness, gaming was a total pleasure. F.E.A.R. has never looked this good on a machine with this price. While other notebooks dispel heat through the front and sides, warming up the palm rest, Alienware keeps the Aurora m9700’s heat directed through the rear of the notebook, making for more comfortable long-term usage. The system’s media and audio performance were also quite good; if the sound was a bit more powerful, this would be an unbeatable system.

I wanted to not only provide the latest news on alienware notebooks and other alienware related products but to also provide an online store so others can purchase some killer alienware products at great prices. Here are some of the hot items you can find here.

Alienware Hangar 18 HTPC

jackminder — Sun, 20 May 2007 02:34:03 +0000

I am waiting patiently to see if Alienware can bring their gaming cred to the HTPC market. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of details about it yet but all signs indicate that it will contain a dual core AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processor with a 100 watt amplifier and 5.1 channel audio. I would also expect to see an HDD in the 160GB range.

I would expect prices to start in the $1000 range, which is definitely not cheap, but I would hope to see the same level of excellence in this media center as I do in their high end gaming rigs. If you want quality, you have to pay for it. Other than that, I don’t know what innovation they may bring to the table. Can not wait to try this one out. Needing a replacement for my current JVC entertainment center.

The Alienware Hangar 18 HTPC is expected to be available sometime in Q2 of 2007

Alienware Coupon

If you’re considering buying an Alienware notebook, then you are obviously someone who appreciates high performance and superior gaming experience - just don’t buy it brand new without using an Alienware coupon unless purchasing through our online store. If you buy an Alienware product without using an Alienware coupon, you may be throwing away hundreds of dollars unnecessarily.

Alienware products are some of the best in their class. From desktops to notebooks, you can’t ask for better quality or better customer service. They may not be the cheapest computers on the market - but in the world of technology, you get what you pay for. That doesn’t, however, mean that you have to pay an arm and a leg for the privilege of owning an Alienware computer. By purchasing an Alienware notebook through our online store you are already saving hundreds of dollars. No need in worrying about coupons!

There are a number of different Alienware coupons available through affiliate websites. Oftentimes you can find an Alienware coupon that offers a set dollar amount off your order, an Alienware coupon that offers free shipping, or an Alienware coupon that offers a free product with your purchase. Sometimes you can even find an Alienware coupon that will offer all three of these deals combined. For example, a recent Alienware coupon offered $100 off an Alienware Aurora 7500 desktop computer, free shipping and a free three-in-one printer. When you add it up, that’s quite a substantial savings.

Many times an Alienware coupon will only apply to a certain product. For example, a $200 Alienware coupon may be applied to specific Alienware notebook, but that discount would not be valid on any other Alienware products. Finding the Alienware coupon that applies to your needs is simply a matter of finding that specific coupon on an affiliate website.

Sometimes when using an Alienware coupon, you can save even more money by combining it with an Alienware rebate. Just make sure the Alienware coupon can be combined with the rebate offer before placing your order. If you ever have questions about the specifics of an Alienware coupon or offer, Alienware’s customer service team is always more than helpful in answering any questions.

Redeeming an Alienware coupon is usually just a matter of clicking a specific link located on an affiliate website. Once you click the link, you are taken to the Alienware website and the Alienware coupon is automatically activated and applied to your order at checkout.

The coupons available for Alienware products are constantly changing, so if an affiliate website does not have an Alienware coupon that applies to your needs, just check back in a week or two to see if the site has been updated with an Alienware coupon for the product you want. While waiting may not seem like the ideal solution, when you consider that the Alienware coupon could save you hundreds of dollars, it may well be worth the wait.

If you’ve always wanted an Alienware product, but they seemed just out of your financial reach, visit an affiliate website for an Alienware coupon and finally get your hands on the computer of your dreams.
