Why would anyone not build their own machine?

I don't get it.

QFT.
I don't get as well why not everybody repairs his car on his own. Its so much cheaper and by far better than the ordinary garage will do.
Or real cooking. I honestly don't get why people buy oven ready meals. Cooking is so much fun and much better. (...)

I've had my m17 now for a year,, love it.. play MWLL on it..

I'm a CAD jockey, so need a good laptop for business and pulling out the alienware is like driving up in a Ferrari.

I'd use an Asus Ferrari or was that Asus Lamborghini for that . . .
Else, i'm not one for showy flashy hardware. I like it inconspious but Powerfull.
Kinda like my buddy with his car. Looks like any old family car, but leaves porsche and corvette in the dust like nobodys business . .

All 3 of my coworkers who had Alienware laptops on deployment had hardware issues.  I had a more powerful laptop that I bought the same time as theirs, and mine has had no issues, in addition to being about $1200 cheaper.

Ever since dell bought alienware their prices went up and everything else went down. They don't give you aaany better specs than any other vendor, and the customer service is  just a division of the dwell customer service department. The safe can be said with voodoo and hp.
