Computers and Alienware are not what you think they are!

If you want to buy a computer for yourself, whether you use it for work, play or travel, there is a computer out there that will fulfil all your requirements to the tee. Now I am no computer geek, and my laptop I use for all of the above, but this is apparently a total misuse of technology. I probably spent too little on my laptop, just because I wanted to save a buck, sounds familiar?

Dell stepped in and I have now been conformed to seeing the big picture!

Customers like me and you, all have different needs and desires, which are expanding from being a generalist like me, to the specialist like many of you out there. People don’t just want their paraphernalia to be bland anymore, so now you can personalise and beautify your equipment with the new inter-changeable lids Dell has on offer, so you look good while working hard.

The processing power of these machines have numbers that don’t even make any sense to me, but you know that when you get 8 hours of battery power, that must be pretty impressive, and that’s just the start! How about WiDi(Wireless Display), you can now wirelessly display your video/movie/presentation to a projector or TV. Touch screen, yes, touch screen laptops that you can create your own music or create children art with some programme already installed on some of this amazing equipment, but the real nitti gritty stuff is just too much to explain in one article!

Skype is starting to rule my world, and these Dell machines have what they call Pixel perfect for Skype, this will change the way you do business or chat to your family via Skype.

Now, this is my favourite part, ALIENWARE, this is for the gamers out there and this is what inspired me to write this piece, I have never seen anything like it!! This machine lights up like a Christmas tree, which you can customise on how it should light up when you play. This machine has a connection to 3D-capable HDTVs for incredible, lifelike 3D gaming and Super Speed USB 3.0 ports for up to 10x the speed of USB 2.0 connections for a new level in data transfer, which is vital when playing games! Why is this important, because rAge is just around the corner and you can check it out there to see it for yourself!

So, fellow SA Men, if you are in the market for a new laptop, mobile device, Alienware, make sure you get the insight on that Dell hardware in the shop, you might just be surprised on what you will find to suit your needs and desires, because we are not all the same and neither are those machines we call computers!!
