Re: Alienware - don't make my mistake this holiday!
Many years ago I ran a site about something that is now a footnote in the history of PC gaming; the 3Dfx video chipset. I was a nobody but getting 1k hits per day (not bad back then), and Alienware was a nobody who needed exposure to gamers, so I let them put a banner add on my site. No click-thru rates, that was too fancy for either of us to setup. They sent me a Pentium 200MHz chip as compensation for the banner add.
As fate would have it, about 2 or 3 weeks later my site became too much work, I started getting corporate offers I didn't know how to respond to (I was 19 and didn't know what an "NDA" was), so in the end I closed my site down and disappeared off the face of the internet to persue a hobby less tied to money and shmoozing.
Anyway, don't worry about your multi-thousand dollar laptop woes because you see, THE JOKES ON ALIENWARE; they lost nearly... $200 dollars... like... eleven years ago.
Yes I know, sweet, sweet vengance. You don't have to thank me, it's ok. Just doing my part.
