I need a new laptop, and am torn between an Asus and an Alienware, both are around $1000. Not much care between Windows 8 or 7, since I think Windows 8.1 (free update) fixes most of the problems (start menu anyone?)

Leaning towards Alienware, just based on how cool it looks, but the screen is a mere 14”. The Asus has an ideal 15.6”.

Tough decision.

I take it you don’t like the Surface Pro ( a combined laptap/tablet)?

You want to avoid the Klingons Alienware software. It is buggy and their tech support agents are very mean.
