its got vista so no one wants it
Haha still got the busa
lol i can assure you because it has a 300$ OS on it that is not the reason they dont want it. XP sucks compared to vista. And if thats the case, then good luck trying to play direct x 10 games on xp. :thumbsup:
Eh, I would buy it regardless of the OS but right now XP is still a better OS but soon enough Vista will prevail because Microsoft is going to make it more compatible with everything and perform overall better. Alienwares are unbelievable I have an old one and it is great.

Vista is scheduled to go the way of ME .. of to the redheaded step child bin. Windows 7 is where microsoft is putting their development dollars. You will see minimal attention paid to vista.
Businesses are not upgrading because the cost/benefit analysis is on the wrong side of the equation

if you think this way then you FAIL. The gaming industry is a bigger market than businesses will ever be. about 1/6th of the worlds population plays video games. Thats 1 BILLION people. So i would think the gaming industry will stimulate windows vista enough for microsoft to not care what the business industry cares about.
Anyway, bump for the day!
true, but there are really minimal compatibility issues when used as a personal computer, gaming rig, office setup, or the like.
minimal is in the eye of the beholder. I have one machine with vista on it but several of my programs won't work on it. Not much of a problem for me since I have several laptops out here anyway but in one case I had to buy some new hardware because the vendor was NOT going to write Vista Drivers and the xp drivers wouldn't work.
for the average user you are right. But a LOT of Microsoft's major customers are saying the benefits of upgrading just aren't enough to justify the cost that they are being charged for the upgrades.
I have the same Alienware you have but more tricked out it is a very nice machine for sure
lol define more tricked out? There isnt much else you can do to these laptops that dont cost under 500$
Well I didn't put a cost on it. dual sli 512mb video cards 4gb of ram dual 160mb hard drives
