if your going to spend 1.5 grand on a computer... why the hell would u pick such a crappy processor.
a motherboard half that price and an amd 64 bit would whoop that intels ass.
oh and about alien wares prices, its called buisness smart ass.
if you were going to build full computers and sell them to people wouldnt you charge more.
all prebuilt computers are "overpriced", why? becuase people dont want to build them thierself.(at least stupid people hehehe)
all cars are overpriced, why? because people dont want to build them thier self.
welcome to the economic system.
btw to get an idea why they sell so high priced, read the forums to a game like say... matrix online. the people are flat out retarded .
heres some things they say. "1.6 ghz to run mxo? thats a HUGE number are you sure it isnt 166mhz? and a radeon 9600!! what do you think we are game developrs?" "i have a pentium3 1.1mhz and 128mb of ram can i play mxo?" "i have a 1.6ghz and 768mb of ram and a geforce mx can i play mxo?"
these people are retarded crackheads. if u want a good laugh read this forum thread :
