Superman Notebook

So it is time for me to buy a new computer. How do I know? I want one. The one pictured is the snazzy new Alienware Superman PC that I really want but cannot afford.

I do want something more powerful and considered getting a Macbook Pro, with the Intel Core-Duo processors. But I think I am going to go with an Alienware for their superior power, and lack of over heating problem. I will be keeping an eye out for some nice deals- in the mean time, you can let me know what you think! Later!

UPDATE: I was in Best Buy today (6/10) and saw This Gateway. It has better specs that most of the Alienwares I was looking at and it is 1/2 the price. I have always said Gateways were good machines- they fell off for a little but are now back on track. It looks like I may go with this laptop and it’s awesome specs. An added bonus, it has XP but is Vista capable….

    Holy Crapola dude, that Gateway is…SO cheap!!!

    I think I might get it. I’ve been looking around for a new laptop and I was considering getting a mac, but if i did I only really wanted the Macbook Pro because it’s like…really awesome. only 1,300 for something better than it though? wow.

    Alienwares are way overrated, that Gateway looks sweet. AMD cpu so there shouldn’t be much of an issue in regards to overheating. It comes with Media Center–if you didn’t notice. Maybe replace that with linux and it could be a sick machine… ;P

  5. [...] A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about getting a new computer. Well since then, I picked up the Gateway MX6455 Laptop and I couldn’t be happier. It’s much faster than my old one, bigger and lighter, with an incredible display. I have been able to run notepad, my FTP program, Photoshop, an IM client, Windows Media Player, IntelliSync, Firefox with 4-8 tabs and Norton System Works (plus whatever runs in the background) with no problem what-so-ever. And that is just the start. [...]
