(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok so this christmas I'm planning on buying a new PC..
I've thought about it a lot and still haven't made my mind up..

The choices are:
Alienware M15x laptop - £1200
Custom built Desktop - £1248
Macbook Pro 15" - £900
Sony Vaio FW - £800

Wadda you think and why?

EDIT:
I ended up buying the Vaio...
I know it didn't have the most votes but It was reduced from £800 to £700 which allowed me to buy a HD PVR with the spare cash .
Thanks for your advice anyway guys

macs are beast dude.

OS is better than Windows??

What are you going to be using it for ?
For gamign i'd say the Alien Ware or custom bulit pc
But if not for home use and like work, Mac Book pro or the Sony.

mac sucks unless your doing heavy multimedia
sony doesnt have good computers
alien ware over heats from what I heard. Not worth the $$

custom built=best

I'm going to be mostly video/image editing and using the web. I would also like it to be able to run top games like crysis at least on low settings. From what I've heard, the custom built and Alienware have a ridiculously good GFX card so that should be a problem on them but I wont be gaming all the time so I suppose I can compromise

The new alienware laptops don't overheat. If you are playing games that are graphic intensive then the alienware laptop WASD keys will tend to be a little bit warm, but other than that they run smooth with the new i7. They use a lot of power though my m17x only has 1 hour and 40 minutes on high performance with only using itunes/browsing the internet/msn/maybe cs;s in there a bit. (zombie mod ofc)

Def get the Macbook Pro, that will last you a long time. But if you decide to get a PC, get Ubuntu as the OS.
