Alienware is taking orders for Area-51 ALX gaming systems featuring NVIDIA SLI technology. The water-cooled systems are decked out with dual GeForce 6800 Ultra graphics cards, but saddled with Nocona-core Xeon processors. With an estimated shipping date of December 1, ALX systems could be the first commercially-available NVIDIA SLI platforms. However, with nForce4 SLI on the way and the Athlon 64 trashing the Pentium 4 in games, more appropriate and affordable SLI platforms may be available before long.

Thanks to Morgan and Carlo for the heads-up on this one!

Alienware is expensive. Why not build your own and skip the middleman?

AMD rocks. I'm really proud of that company! Santa's bringing me a dual core Athlon 64 if they are available!

That's some good "impartial" journalism there.

Anyway, Alienwares are cool, but way overpriced. I guess you pay a lot to have that cool case.
