2nd First gaming machine from alienware, though

I'm really excited about this beast. I would have liked to have waited a little bit longer, but my current desktop is going to die!!!!

Oh well, up to Phase 3. The shipping phase is going be just as painful as it was before when I ordered my Sentia

Well, they came out with the P2 chassis for the Area51 5500.. so I got that. Picked a color for it, also got the X1950 XTX, and finally, added a RAID array for an additional 170$.

It was totally worth it

The Beast is arriving on Nov 2nd - can't wait, Yang.

I've gone for the delivery option where they drive it personally to your house. No fear of it being manhandled by rushed couriers and thrown onto the back of a van.

I'll be sure to post photos and a full review shortly after it arrives.
