For people who shell out for Alienwares, that's not a bad price for what you get.

That's nice. I've been planning on upgrading to a notebook with the Santa Rosa chipset in it as soon as they come out with 800 mhz SODIMMs that take advantage of the faster FSB - I guess it will cost a bit more now. :)
