I have a 15" MB Pro, but I upgraded before taking it, but I can say it's delicious. I haven't tried out an Alienware, but I think it must be faster. Would be great for gaming, i'ts a shame most games are for win.

It doesn't swap as much thus it's speedier. It was noticeably laggy with only 2 gig, but now doesn't lag. Also my VM runs better. I downgraded from a Macbook with 3gig (which was pretty okay) to this MBP with only two. $77 later and 10 screws I'm up to 4 so life is sweet.

Describe awesome:

- awesome like you just won the lottery?
- awesome like you just got "laid"?
- awesome like you're getting a ride on the next space shuttle mission?

Or is it awesome like:

- you're hungry & about ready to eat your favorite pizza?
- had to go to the bathroom real bad, and you took care of business?
- you had a splinter in your foot, and just got it removed?

;D :Smirk: :p

Sounds like you had some good reasons to upgrade!

The analogies were a little TGIF humor!
