Review of the a51m-5500 First Impressions Let me remind all of you this is my first Alienware. I am simply amazed at its features and speed. I have owned many laptops, and being a computer hardware technician and avid gamer, buying this Alienware was a no-brainer. Other choices were Dell, IBM and Sony. Ordering One of the better sites to order something from. Alienwares layout is pretty nice, comparable to Dell. I ordered my system in less than 10 minutes and had an order confirmation about 5 minutes after ordering. The Infamous Phase Game We all know about this. Pretty much felt like a crackhead feening for more crack. I never even saw one yet, so my thoughts were...

Alienware m5500 First/Initial Impressions – Well, the first thing I thought about this beautiful machine is mainly “I'm not worthy!” but seriously out of all the laptops I used this is so far the best. Good specs. Screens a little dim, not loud, little hot.. but we will go over everything in more detail soon… the main reason I got this wonderful laptop is mainly my old m7700 I had was just getting too darn heavy at 13lbs (22lbs / my backpack fully loaded) and the battery life topping out at maybe an hour… just too bad. 15.4" Wide screen 1680x1050 Pentium M 2.0Ghz 80 GB 7200rpm HD 1Gig Ram DVD+R Burner Intel 2915 wireless card Nvidia 6600go 256mb MX518...

**Warning** I'm not really good at the whole review thing....This is just me typing a bit about my new lappy... First Impressions Shipping I must admit, at first I was a bit worried about my lappy. I've heard a few horror stories on these forums about FedEx shipping and from some friends at work, so I was a bit white knuckled the whole time. However, I was immediately reassured when I opened up the black AW box and saw how well this machine was packaged. Everyone knows how wonderful AW packaging is, so I won't even get into it. It also shipped in 8 days from the time they recieved my payment...not bad at all!!! A+ Quality Wow, what can I say...No flex whatsoever with...
