    Great deal for that price!

    My problem with alienware rigs has always been that they look like a crossover between the Millennium Falcon and a dildo. But I guess if you're in to that kind of stuff it's fine.

    From what I've seen it has a fullsize keyboard which i hope is true because there's nothing i hate more than undersized keys which have been squished together.
    Is it possible to tweak the registry so the system can have a higher resolution?

    You can't force a resolution your monitor/GPU can't handle, but you can force an application/game to use a resolution that it doesn't have native support for.

    So Dell had my delivery date as the 17th October, i told them i needed it sooner so they gave me a free upgrade from 7-day shipping to Next Business Day shipping (usually like $25)... How good is that?
