They have been around forever. In fact I think they were the first in building the truly KICK butt systems and then companies like Alienware and Voodoo, etc... copied their business model. I owned a Falcon NW back in 1995-1996 and it was a sweet rig for that time frame.

Overpriced.    Build it for about 1/2 that.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Or less.

I looked at Dell Gaming machines. I think they were around $3k. You could definately build one exactly like it for about 1/3.

You can build a similar machine for around $1500 USD.
