Alienware has gone mobile
You may be fimilar with Alienware for their killer custom desktop systems. But you may not be aware that they just opened up a custom notebook configurator for building the killer portable gaming system. My only beef is that they don't allow selecting Win2000 Pro as an OS option, only WinXP Pro and Home.
I'm quite happy with my Sony Vaio GR-300, it does very well with gaming. I run Counter Strike in 3D Mode at 1024x768 with no problems. I haven't installed Quake 3 which is the normal benchmark for performance, but I will soon.
