Cheapest alienware I seen was $1600 or so, the site I did the customize on is Portatech.com and it has all the options you need and has options for video card but it has the 640mb 8800GTS so I want the 512mb version because I read it is faster and is over 100 dollars cheaper for such a small decrease of memory.

Buck, On portatech for a full system with graphic card and all is like 1000-1400 but that is minus the cost of a monitor, Later I plan on getting a flat panel monitor probably from newegg or ebay.
