There is no comparison. The MacBook Pro is superior in every way, but EXPENSIVE, and if you learned all you needed to know on a Windows System, you will likley experience a lot of frustration in the change-over. The Alienware is a very high failure item. If you consider Dell, choose only the top of the line units with the extra cooling channels and the long warranty on the screen.
