I guess this means Dell might finally sell AMD systems....
Either that or we'll just end up with a sub-brand that DOES ship that quad-GPU Intel rig that Dell demo'ed recently...
I'm with 64Bit on this one, I think it will allow Dell to sell AMD systems which they cannot currently due to their agreement with Intel...

I think it will end up being Dells route to the AMD market share, well atleast to test the waters

Wheres the Kudos in owning a Dell Alienware system? :0)
wheres the kudos in owning a high end system you didnt build yourself?
Agreed. I wouldn't buy one tbhOriginally Posted by vrykyl
But lots of people can't be bothered with the hassle/research and wants that "zing" of a top-line system out of the box
Plus Alienware Laptops are very good
werent they like primary competition to dell? so buying them kinda getting rid of competition , i feel somewhat sorry for future alienware owners.
Alienware and Dell were never competitors....
I would prefer a Dell notebook over an Alienware.Originally Posted by kempez
Alienware are just painted Clevos or something - similar to ROCK, Voodoo, and SavRow
Yeah I think I'd prefer a dell too. But Alienware still do nice laptops
IBM laptops FTW!

Dell intends on running Alienware as a standalone subsidiary, and has no plans to co-market products with Alienware, or even offer Alienware PCs for sale over Dell's website.
It's only the third corporate acquisition in Dell's 22-year history, and Alienware's approximately $170 million in annual revenue is just a sliver of Dell's nearly $56 billion in 2005 sales. However, the move is seen as a chance for Dell to gain more of a footprint in the consumer PC market.
Dell spokesman Jess Blackburn said only about 15% of Dell's revenue comes from its consumer sales, with the remaining 85% from its main corporate customer base, and that the deal helps the company reach into new markets.
