If you are based in kenya you might want to consider support.

Alienware m11x, hands down...<br><br>Obviously even if you use it mostly for work it will be amped up...if you&#39;re a developer think of how many VM sandboxes you can run simultaneously...if you&#39;re into CAD...question&#39;s answered...if you&#39;re a media enthusiast...you&#39;ll be converting in a breeze. GPU power counts!<br>


<br>If your intention is bootcamp for your gaming then you lose framerates to the m11x. Scratch that, if you&#39;re comparing running apps on windows on both machines you&#39;re way better off with Alienware. Only drawback I see to the m11x is the fact that it doesn&#39;t have an i7...but rumours are that there might be an updated m11x sometime this year with new Nvidia &amp; Intel chips...<br>


<br>However, I leave the decision to you with these reviews:<br><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/macbook-pro-core-i7-review?icid=sphere_blogsmith_inpage_engadget" target="_blank">http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/macbook-pro-core-i7-review?icid=sphere_blogsmith_inpage_engadget</a><br>

<br>Lastly, if you want serious bragging rights...get the Alienware. That bald bug-head does turn heads more than the fruit from the garden of Eden IMO.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 21:38, Josiah Mugambi <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:jmugambi@gmail.com" target="_blank">jmugambi@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

As with all things, it depends on what you want to do with it! Code? Play games?<div><br></div></blockquote></div><br></div>Both, it will be my main work machine, coding at least 6 hours per day, 5 days per week. Movies, music and occasional gaming. Occasional here meaning like 3 hours per week :-)<br>

God is not an excuse for lack of discipline<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------<br>Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&#39;t feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.<br>
As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others. <br>
