Because kids think Alienware is the coolest **** ever and have the best laptops for the best prices and gets someone to buy it for them. That's pretty much my experience with it whenever my little brother wanted one.

Honestly it's all about brand name, look at clothing lines. They sell ridiculous outfits for a butt ton of money because it's known for certain stereotype! For example, Gucci "makes you look wealthy.." Alienware make you look like you have a powerful computer.. most times you can get a better computer for less, only thing is, it's off brand.

I think some kids legitimately think their laptops or ****** desktops are made by actual aliens. Only reason someone would waste so much money IMO.

Yeah if alienware should Their chassis then they would make plenty of money. Even if they did they would still be $300+ .

Same way apple is.

15" macbook pro starts at 2000. You can get many laptops with similar specs for under 600 bucks.

Except Apple actually make decent products. MacBooks are good for what they were made for, and there's no denying that OSX is better on laptops than Windows is.

I despise OSX and Macbooks are overpriced as ****.

I got a 2009 macbook for 75 bucks used it was a good deal but I sold on ebay and got a cheap dell used laptop worse specs free I prefer over the macbook.

That's nice. You can despise what you want, but Macbooks are decent and OSX is far superior than Windows for mobility.

Some kids think they are a pro PC gamer if they decide to spend a lot of money on something they could build for much cheaper. Even if that population is small, Alienware's profits (based on some of what they put into their computers) are decent enough I would imagine.

Apple OSX is less customizable, slower, ugly, less intuitive, less compatible with software and has literally no purpose to it.

It's not slower, at all. It does have a purpose. Apple macbooks are amazing for people that will utilise them properly. For those that won't, yeah, they're pretty pointless. Battery life on OSX laptops however, is much better than Windows laptops because Apple optimise their OS for mobility. You won't be doing any gaming on one but they're good for social media people, and people who are doing any kind of photoshop type work, or just for work stuff.

>Not slower
Have you ever used a mac?

>Optimized for mobility
How does one optimize for mobility what makes it better its slower, harder to navigate, less intutive, less customizable, less application support.

I want an OS I can just plug and play a random camera in and use Windows to import photos into C:\user\pictures and I wanna use NTFS USB sticks without having to download dodgy 3rd party software.

If all you do is social media please explain why Windows is inferior because you are using a more restrictive os, with shittier browser support (No waterfox for Mac), worse plugin support for things like Silverlight, Flash, shittier display drivers, horrible text scaling, inferior multitasking, inferior resource management.

Battery life is not any different you change battery settings based on what your doing if your using high performance profile which has CPU at 100% when plugged in on Windows it may use more. How is the OS optimized for mobility? Its much slower, takes longer to boot, takes longer to restart, what can be utilized by Mac? There is no benefit to using mac over windows its a clearly inferior operating system.

How is mac better for photoshop? Windows PS is much better than mac, social media is easier on windows especially when your getting into buggy mac version of skype and ****.
