Other than a new kind of display...I can't really think of anything that would get me pumped up from Alienware.

A new Desktop? Yippy freaking doodah, I can make whatever you built for less money with better cooling and wow factor.

A new laptop? Oh goody, I bet if I go to the gym every day for three weeks my back will be strong enough to carry it from my living room to my front door without causing massive internal bleeding of course by the time I make it to the front door I'll have to take it out of my bag, plug it in for 2 hours and then frantically rush to the nearest gas station to repeat the process in an futile attempt to actually get mobile computing out of my 10 pound $3000 paperweight.

A new netbook? Oh thank god, because what the world needs is a new way to implement an Atom/Via/Centrino 2 processor, integrated graphics, 2gb of ram and an SSD drive into a shell 13.3" by 1" that should have enough room to store my wallpapers and a david bowie album before filling up and subsequently exploding.]]>Nov 3rd 2008 8:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/

Or maybe a warranty that will extend a couple days beyond the normal one so that when their product does die of something that has already been reported and "fixed" multiple times, it will still be addressed instead of getting the standard "Your warranty has expired, sorry about your luck pal" response.

Seriously, Alienware can go get bent.]]>Nov 3rd 2008 9:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 9:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 11:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 10:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/]]>Nov 3rd 2008 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/Nov 3rd 2008 10:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/alienware-teases-evolutionary-product-should-unveil-today/
