PFFFT. you people never learn. Get a 1 year old high performance Lenovo, Acer or Dell. You can get those "Brand new" for much lower price on Best buy liquidation centers. Even staples sometimes. Avoid using laptops on your legs, the fans can not pull air in or out. This cause the machine to rapidly overheat. [/quote] PFFFFFFT my ass If you are working in pro audio the only close to professional answer is Mac That alienware crap is for dumb assed gamers. No doubt you bought the unit thinking is would work well for film scoring and you would not need as much outboard but you learned the hard way that the platform itself will not survive the heavy taxing of the processor and video card. Why anyone would even attempt to score on a laptop as a main controller is beyond me. [/quote] if your working in pro- audio... first your sound card is external.. so you fail. Mac sucks and nothing ever gonna change that. [/quote]

Alienware M15X has shit the bed on me a half dozen times in a year and a half since I got it. Was working fine last night, woke up today to turn it on, nothing. NO power whatsoever.
This is perfect, considering I have a half-finished filmscore I need to complete and the computer is just dead. I just lost about a years worth of work - I should have backed everything up.
Don't get Alienware, they shit the bed if you sneeze the wrong way. The customer service sucks and tells you something different every time you call. You drop $3000 on one of these computers and the cocksuckers can't even take 10 minutes out of their day to try and troubleshoot for you if you're out of warranty. So much for customer service. A fucking multi-billion dollar company needs MORE MONEY to help me after I've dropped several grand on their touchy products?
Fuck it, I hope 12/21/12 is the fucking end. Let it all burn. Anyone got any clue on what might be the problem? I'd like some assistance in rectifying this issue before I literally hang myself.
