Haahaa, I understand that, but that's my point.
They're saying you need Vista for it to say "4GB" ram, even though it only sees ~3.25... Dell advertising... Come on...

How does that not make sense?
Vista SP1 moved the limit from ~3.25GB to 4GB exactly... So, Vista is 'required' to run 4GB memory. True statement, but just a way to get more money out of you.... Like I said, Dell is a good advertising company.

Haahaa, those specs are laughable.
This technology has been around for some time now, and with 1TB drives on the market, this system basically has 4 SATA ports... Last time I checked a motherboard with 4 SATA ports, Crossfire, and a quad-core Intel was far from a "monster."
This system for $5149 is a complete rip off...
Wait 'til piranhapc.com opens up... You'll see some "monsters..."
EDIT: So, fancy advertising bests us all...
$8,142.00... that's how much it's going to cost you for what they mention in the above article. But, in my opinion, you're paying for that cheesy "Alienware" emblem on the front of the tower... The eyes do glow, though...
Hoora for Dell advertising & crappy overpriced products.
