The Last Poster Wins [v28]

Oh man, Alienware is such a MASSIVE waste of money. Fastest way to spend an extra $3000 for no good reason.

It's like the BMW (Big Money Waste) of computers. I've never used an Alienware computer, but there's a good reason for that. Even just five more minutes of shopping around will help you find other sites that sell the same thing but drastically cheaper.

I find it hilarious that one of Alienware's ad campaigns was urging people to buy it for the "bragging rights."

I find it funny that when Alienware came out it was kinda big, but now is basically a laughing stock.

Yeah I remember when a friend of mine got one and I wanted one. They were just so expensive. Not worth it now. Heck once I get my computer back I'll probably have to buy a new graphics card. Simple fixes. I also only wanted laptops. Now I have room for a desktop and it's way better.

[Neo Emolga]

Yeah, there was a time I thought I needed a whole new computer, but just replacing the graphics card was all I needed in the end. The RAM and processor are still pretty good and aren't too far off from what's considered the best on the market right now. Although I don't really obsess with tracking framerate. As long as it just feels smooth, I'm good.

Though it's crazy how avid people are out to buy the latest graphics card for crazy gobs of money even though a slightly older card can still play stuff in Ultra and be much, much cheaper. I guess that's where Alienware snags people who don't do their homework. They try to get people to think that in order to play the latest games with the best graphics and framerate, you absolutely have to have the latest hardware and spend like $6K for it.

Start my first in person day tomorrow. Let’s hope it goes well!

[Neo Emolga]

Hey, good luck and all the best! Hopefully it's a WAY better position than the last one.

[Chakramaster]

Already moved to your new apartment too? Well hopefully this new job is way better for you in every way! Hopefully it's exactly what you were looking for.

[Noblejanobii]

Yep I moved in on Saturday!

First day in person has been great so far.

[Neo Emolga]

That's great to hear!

Yeah, that last job you had sounded terrible. It happens, I've had a few jobs where getting let go or quitting felt like bliss. New and better ones will come along. :3

[Noblejanobii]

Yeah this one has been great. Way better than the other one. They actually respect that I work 9-5 which is super nice haha.
