 |  Dell axes XPS, relies on Alienware DailyTech - Dell Axes XPS Line in Favor of Alienware Gaming PCs Dell has announced it is dropping its XPS line of systems in favor of the higher end and oft-times overclocked Alienware systems. By concentrating its efforts on the alienware systems, people can expect to pay at least $500 more for the exact same system but with the pretty "alien" exterior.   Thanks HL and Corsair!

| Re: Dell axes XPS, relies on Alienware I dunno, I'd still take a dell tablet over the gateway my school is forcing me to use (1 more semester... ugh.) This gateway tablet really is junk.

| Re: Dell axes XPS, relies on Alienware No big loss to me either. I don't have/want anything to do with Dell. Besides it costs less to build myself.(And no bloatware!)
