i've priced alienware computers a few times since 2006 and every time they seem way overpriced for the parts they offer.
 
A pair of 5670's in Crossfire? That sounds completely gutless for the cost. I hope consumers aren't being suckered in by that.

This is one of those presents that a well meaning relative gets you, and on one hand you're super excited to get it, and also incredibly annoyed that they could have spent the same amount of money for a much better computer had they asked you first.
