This is pretty cool! I think you could have posted it anywhere. The idea is novel because it is a portable PC for people that don't want to get their hands dirty or might not know what they have to do to put together a computer. PC gaming is getting more casual whether people like it or not (i.e. Project Fiona by Razer).

It is overpriced for the hardware you get. Typical Alienware TBH.

The only good thing from this is to inform people that PCs don't have to be the size of a small house to be good. But pricewise they could have done a LOT better.

Good thing that computer brands are starting to realise the potential of small-size computers for gaming. I hope to see more of these from all sorts of brands.
