you gaming or not? all depends on what your doing with it

i have a dell. great support. haven't had a single problem with it.

alienware are overpriced IMHO. sure there support is great but for the price you pay for those damn things? i don't think so. now money isn't an issue. go for it!

i haven't had any experiences with Sager. but from what i heard there affordable laptops that are great.

Dell - 1 reason... great support.

Alien Ware - overpriced

we have serveral dells at work and had some problems with them but in 24 hrs they send out a tech and fix the problems very quickly.

once you give me the budget i will give you an answer

actually after looking, if you go with the sager np8880 supra, that looks like your best bet, great features available, plus the resellerrating is as good as it gets

ok ready, the only advantage the alienware laptops have over the other two is that for an extra $150 bucks you can get it in whatever color you want...if that is a big deal for you go for it

the dell is a sure bet but it doesn't have as many options as the sager supra

the sager supra gives you the most for your money with the most options, the only thing about it is you can't get it in like green, but if that was ok with you, i'd pick that one for sure but if money is of no concern at all, then i'd maybe actually go with the alienware just because you could get a lot of cool stuff in it and it looks the coolest by far.

tell me the budget you are on, it would make it easier
