Ddeere2 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I was thinking of getting a new laptop before i go off to college. Right now, i've been looking at the Alienware m9700. What do you all think, is this a good choice? and also, could you tell me of a better laptop? thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtterFox Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Really depends on what you want to use it for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ddeere2 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 well, what i was going to use it for mainly was gaming, since i have a second laptop that's kind of old school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanob0t Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I would say make your own, but I don't know how laptops are to make. Or if you could do it. I enjoy making my own desktops. Anyway, that's a good choice considering it's the second best. I doubt you want to pay 4500$. I would definitely throw some more RAM into it. 512mb is a bit low. Up it to 1 GB. And if you have the cash, dual video cards will keep it up to date. It comes standared with a good enough screen and audio. That's all I would do to it. Personally, I'd spend a large amount in order to keep it up to date, because laptop parts aren't so upgradable. Other than that, Alienwares are made for gaming. They are probably your best bet. Dell has one that my Chemisty teacher got and it's pretty nice, not to mention very customizable. Here's the link. http://www.dell.com/content/products/produ...s=dhs&cs=19 I'd just choose 2-3 and look at customer reviews and specs.
