Keeping it in the freezer? You serious? O_o

Yes, 100%.

This should re-set the Battery's memory & make it like you just bought it NEW

;)

But may not work with very old Batteries.

Alienware's aren't that expensive unless you pick the best model they make.

when u say that ppl plug it in like say...all night even though it only needed like 10mins of charging....is it the same thing as plugging it in while USING the laptop? like say u have 100% battery life and ur using it in ur room, should you plug it in, or only plug it in when you're charging it?

In most cases, yes. The charger and the power input are two seperate things, even though they may be contained in the same cable.

Well, I wouldn't say they look that bad.  Other than the alien on it, I think they look pretty cool.  And, they are great at performance.

Unfortunately, that \"alien\" thing kind of... um... covers the entire top section.

I dunno. I have personal philosophy in how computers are \"supposed\" to look... IE... they need to look like computers. They don't need to look like hellish death things or... they don't need to look like... like... they're staring back at you.

...*sigh*

Just my opinion though. Brushed aluminum and gloss black kicks butt.

That's the one I'm getting and the alien barely covers anything.  

Alienware is just high-tech.  It comes with sweet computer themes and wallpapers built in.
