Hey guys,
I thought I ask you guys for some suggestions about my Alienware Area51-M 7700 which is no longer operational. I got this laptop last year around January '05 and my warranty on it has run out.
The problem is that I dropped it about 3 feet off the ground in which is landed on the backend of the laptop. It didnt completely die right away, In fact it took about a week or so before it just no longer power up anymore. I called in and it could possibly be a motherboard issue in which it will cost me over a thousand dollar to replace it.
Looking at my other options, should I sell it for scraps? Or is there an exchange program that Alienware might offer? I know there some loopholes with some of the credit campanies where they will replace it for me without any cost to me (like american express, but I didnt use it). You guys have any other ideas on what I can do?
Thanks a bunch in advance...
