I am going off to college soon, and am trying to choose between a dell XPS and one of Alienwares Aurora series. Now, i hear many good reviews about alienware, and i also hear that dell will give me a bunch of garbage that i dont need on the computer. Maybe its just me, but when i built a dell on thier site, it seemed like i got more for the money than alienware. Dell included a 19" lcd, had a pentium D as opposed to a pentium 4, as well as a few other options that i had to pay extra for with alienware.
With so many processor options, i dont know where to look---pentium4, D, AMD etc What is right for me? Which system woudl be better for me? There are sooo many differnt systems as well (especially on alienwares site) I am looking to spend about $1500ish not including monitor and speakers. It will mostly be used for multimedia, as well as typical college use. Please help! thank you
