If I had to sum the Alienware up in one sentence, it would be "Extreme performance yet buggy, noisy, expensive and with a poor balance of components". To be fair, apart from the missing screws build quality was perfectly adequate, and if you like the Alienware look, there's no alternative. Just do yourself a favour and switch the Extreme processor to a Core 2 Quad Q9300 and upgrade the RAM to 4GB, then spend the £500 you have left over on a top quality monitor.
