Abstract: We rarely cover gaming rigs here at Pocket-lint, but there's something so iconic and, well, downright insane about the Alienware Area-51 that we couldn't resist. Or maybe the Greys have taken over our brains. Far from flying in from a land far away and m...
Abstract: Finally, there's a little more news on the Alienware Alpha, Alienware's Windowsbased (for now) hybrid between a PC and console which you can read more about in our Gamescom coverage. Alienware says it is still targeting a preChristmas release date, and...

Even if we have a few reservations about this system, we can't deny that Alienware has an outstanding deal on its hands. It offers the same core hardware and twice the storage capacity as PCs that cost £1,000 more. High-end bargain hunters, assuming t...
Abstract: Alienware computers are never cheap but if you dont mind parting with serious chunks of your salary, youll end up with the coolest style icon with gaming power to match. Alienware - Area-51 7500 Desktop price Buy Alienware Area-51 7500 Desktop secur...
