friend wants to buy alien ware

[Guest]

Can you help me out to talk my freind out of buying a alien ware he seems to think that its the best right now and i tried teaching him about computer but he seems to not try hard enough in learning it Am i wrong to do this or am i right?

All you can do is show him other options, why you think they're better, and let him figure it out on his own. If he wants to spend his money on Alienware, then let him. It's not your money.

I find the best way to convince people is to let them come to the conclusion themselves rather than trying to argue with them. I usually just state facts and the pros and cons and often times they end up agreeing with me.

I would show them the Ibuypower website so they can see how much more you can get for less.

 

Before Dell bought them they had an app on their site to show you how much more powerful their computers were to yours. It was how I gauged the power of my builds. My rigs always destroyed them.

Show him a parts list and build for him, would be fun. Pull the config he wants and make it by parting it out, show him the savings (don't forget tax and shipping when factoring in price difference)

You're in Green Bay, right? Tell him that the official color of Alienware is purple.

It's really up to them. Some people like building computers, some don't. 

 

The most you can do is explain to your friend what to look for, but it's hard to change someone's mind. 

 

The idea that "Alienware = bad" really only resonates among those who care about those things. Many people who buy an Alienware for the aesthetic don't care that they could get something else. 

 

It's really not that big of a deal.

 

It's not they wanted to get a Mac or anything...

its more of that alien ware is really expensive and the one he wants is outrageously expensive where he could get another computer that is  the same price for much more power
