I'd like to share at this time that Mac user arragont elitism is wearing very, very thin.

Then stop coming to these forums.  It shouldn't be a very hard concept to grasp.

The trolls are out in full force today.

I do not see the point of putting doors over ports.

The iMacs had port doors for an amazing two revisions. We haven't see doors since.

Doors are basically just asking to get snapped off.

Otherwise, it looks okay. (A little like the just put green plastic around a metal box, but it is its own style I guess.)

Well Apple has been producing cases for a long time. Alienware just got started. They probably haven't learned all the little lessons that Apple has because they haven't been at it as long.

It will be interesting to see if the doors stay with the design as time goes on.

As far as custom case designs go I'll chime in and say that I do feel that Apple blazed that trail. I can't think of any totally original case designs I've seen that Apple didn't take a crack at first.

For some odd reason the majority of people don't seem to care until someone other than apples does it. Reminds me of the Newton kinda, first of its kind and arguably the best but more people know what a Palm Pilot is than a Newton. Strange.

I'm just wondering if any of you people were actually suprised?
C'mon, this is to appeal to a group of kids who think that a case window and a neon light makes them

I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe the color, but that's about it. I think it has a sort of cool art-deco look (again, if you look beyond the green color).

I agree... beyond the aweful color, it does have the potential to look fairly good. I picture it without those two big black vent-like things on the sides, and in a light gray color.... now that would look pretty sweet.

yeah, I still think it looks cool, and well-built...

That alien predator is fugly corny. It's like if Disney made a system they'd do mickey's head. This thing looks like that. Just an eye short of warranting a Mattel/Barbie logo.

Can't wait to see the matching keyboard/mouse though.

Nah...leave the vents. They're cool.

Here are a couple of examples of trains I'm talking about. Kinda neat.

Yeah, very cool.

It corders on, shall we saw Post-Artdeco?  or Neo Art Deco or something... I like it...

The vents and that kool alien head mascot add an extra 800 MHz of power to that thing, easy.

Those were excellent train pix, classic design. The alienware box reminds me much more of something straight from the early 1970s; say, a Hot Wheels car, or better still, something from George Barris, King of the Kustomizers. Bet that's where the influence was drawn.



I'd guess that the industrial designers of the past would've been ashamed to pinch off a computer that ugly.

i like it. except for the colour and logo.

and the flap door.

You, sir, are a complete smurf.  Die from cerebal palsey.  :arrow:

Your boyfriend Box Of Heads would appear to have left, I would suggest that you follow him before he gets out of sight and you find yourself all alone.

Ohh, a gay insult.  Wow, I've never seen one of those on the internet before. 

Bwhahahahahhaha!  In case there was any doubt of stupidity, I just recieved this in my email:

"come over to my house and call me a tard.Then we'll see.

Feel free to delete the thread smurfer."


   

You are a genuine eThug, now log off your mom's AOL account and get outside.  Oh man, this is too much. 

We're done with this one, check your PMs rampant.
