all these laptops have wireless ‘slots’ they reccomended one that is external, or rather goes in the same slot but sticks out, because it has more RANGE :) hehe.. so I went for the MORE RANGE!!! :)

It’s heavy as nuts but it comes with SO MUCH COOL STUFF!!! Dual monitors even!! OMG I AM IN LOVE!! I dub thee, FRAGGLE !!

Finding a pen in this house is like finding National Treasure with 2 gold berettas…

‘It’s fun to type in numbers, then flip the laptop high into the air to read the #’s underneath it Verdana 4 point, and repeat the process for each section of #’s.’

once upon a time, there were these things called ‘pen’ and ‘paper’. they were used to write things that were needed elsewhere… like serial numbers off the back/bottom of gear…

;-P

(just jealous of the new machine. my laptop is sooo slow these days)

I’m not the mass market; look at Interplay’s debacle (which can’t be blamed entirely on their crackhead decisions). There isn’t a lot of money to be made in the PC gaming market, not including the cost of entry. Consoles are the way to go, and same for the consumer, so I’m not the norm.

…but Alienware exists for a reason, hehe!

Built in wireless? Dude, go look at the specs, it’s got a RAID inside, amongst a phat video card. It’s got 4 fans on the bottom!

AND THE HEAD AND POWER BUTTON GLOW!

All right. I’m pretty heavy in to Mini mode on everything except the size of my TV screen.

I would play more PC games if I had the hardware and was willing to pay for the up keep of contemporary PC hardware. But I’m generally playing PS2 and Gamecube instead.

I’ll finish my comment with something along the lines of 12lbs and you don’t have built-in wireless?

Cheers.

p.s. Your nuts are quite heavy :P
