Gaming notebooks are an odd breed of machine that tends to be much more expensive than what you could get a higher performance desktop for. However, anyone who has tried to lug a decked out full tower desktop gaming machine to a LAN party can tell you, sometimes giving up performance for portability isn’t such a bad thing.
Alienware is a gaming notebook and desktop maker that started as a boutique notebook builder catering to the gamer with the coin to spend on high-end equipment. The company was purchased by Dell and has continued to build gaming machines under its own brand name, unlike the major change that happened to Voodoo when HP gobbled it up.

As expected from Dell and Alienware, there are enough configuration options to create some very different final products (as well as easily doubling the price). The most notable is the new Intel Core i7-920XM CPU. It's a whopping $900 upgrade over the default Core i7 720QM (itself nothing to sneeze at), and includes a requirement that you also choose the larger nine-cell battery option.
