Kumar Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Hello, I have a very tough decision to make at the minute and not sure wat really to do. I have thought about it and need more advice on what I really should do. I ll tell you the main part to it . You see I am thinking of investing in a new laptop, and overall I would love a gaming laptop. In my opinion I think that I should get a very very good one but it is very expensive, but the problem is that it cost 2000 pounds from the UK. Its the new alienware m17x and I would like it cause I am a die hard gamer beside cricket fan!:haha:. But problem is my dad wont lend me money and instead he suggests to get another one, so I have a choice of an alienware laptop m17x or a macbook pro my dad insists. Is the macbook worth it? or is the alineware what I should get? REMEMBER, Apple dont do many games and Alienware will have the advanced specs but apple is good and reliable and sigificantly cheaper! Thanks:two_thumbs_up:

Texy Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Alienware, gets their parts from different manufacturers in taiwan and also is part of DELL....did you check out their XPS gaming systems???go to deals2buy.com for good deals...they update daily.....you can get better gaming notebooks from other brands as well.... MACBOOKs are NOT made for gamers...... and i don't know how comfy you're dealing with macs.

[b']MACBOOKs are NOT made for gamers...... and i don't know how comfy you're dealing with macs. are notebooks meant for gaming? videocard on macbook pro (nVidia Go 8600m) and alienware (nVidia Go 8800m GTX). you can install windows on macbook pro through bootcamp/vmware/parallels and try the games out but seriously gaming on laptops? before buying, try both laptops, go to the apple store and try the macbook pro. buy whichever you like. i own a macbook pro.
