Can't wait to see a direct competition in their top-of-the-line PC's; Alien VS. Voodoo. I believe Dell has the bigger budget, who will come out on top?

Well I never really did like Alienware, that just confirms my never buying one.

I'm a Dell fan myself. But Voodoo PC is still top of the line in performance PCs.

voodoo is awsome. i looked at them before, and they made much better stuff then alienware. dont even think about XPS

well if you go deeper into the article (on anandtech) you can actually read that voodo is working close with hp now to develop a lower budget gaming systems and that the voodo systems are the high end ones.

alienware seems to be good but i think they are more show then go. i think dell has set the mark to aquire such a company but hp's purchase with voodo and its plans are a better shot then dell has because dell already has their XPS systems...

im not for dell nor alienware so thumbs up to my long time fav HP and their good and smart plans for the future with voodo

(i think voodo gets spelled voodoo or vodoo ?) not sure ahaha

I wouldn't buy either one.

I'm buyest toward HP for I own an HP and a Compaq. I think they'll do better because Alienware just doesn't compare to Voodoo in my eyes. I can't wait to see what HP and Dell will come up with.

Yeah, I'll just stick to building them myself. Kind of curious though.
