I know this is an Alienware forum and is mainly used for Alienware reviews, but I have done so much research on AW computers (desktop and laptop) here that it's the only place I think I should put it. I was close to ordering a 7500, but...

Well, I had a pretty good idea which card they were working on, but thanks for the clarification, Craig! No need to post all the BS I got before getting someone competent at AW now. Thanks Craig! Now I can wait happily and patiently...

Well, after much ranting, begging and pleading, I finally received a tentative indication that AW is working on an upgrade for the 5500. It may have been just to shut me up, but I hope not. The conversation is pretty long, but if you...

Either way, still not a good move regarding previous customers.
