What would be better overall Alienware or MacBook Pro?
The Macbook Pro would have:
2.66GHz Intel Core i7
8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM – 2x4GB
500GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
SuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
MacBook Pro 15-inch Hi-Res Glossy Widescreen Display
256MB nvidea and 256 intel intergrated graphics
The Alienware:
Intel® Core™ i7 Processor 620M(2.66GHz,4MB cache)
8192MB 1333MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [2x4096]
1GB NVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX260M graphics card
Blu-Ray ROM combo (Blu-ray read only, DVD, CD read & write) Slot Load Drive
9-cell 85Whr Lithium Ion battery
500GB (7,200rpm) Serial ATA Hard Drive
The alienware is £200ish cheeper I do like to do Gaming, but i do like mac OS X. Windows will go on the macbook pro with boot camp but it wont run the Nvidea graphics and a lot of games i have wont run with the integrated intel graphics card. If anyone has and suggestions or alternatives please let me know. Thanks
As far as hardware goes, that Alienware has much better quality (better GPU, Blu-Ray drive, faster RAM).
If you just surf the web and play games, the Alienware is right up your alley.
If you always use the applications that the Mac comes with then go for the Macbook Pro.
