Aw, thanks. While this isn’t yet a regret-filled purchase, the poor Alienware has been something of a dust-catcher lately. Right now, the problem is finding time to play, and there just isn’t any! So even if we did have a swanky, new PC right now, it’d probably be suffering the same fate. But I do still like the idea of easily being able to access our Steam library at a moments notice, so the Alienware isn’t going anywhere for awhile.

Strangely enough, I’ve never actually heard of this thing. But, maybe it’s not so strange because I don’t play PC games (aside from Slender: The 9 Pages). The only time I looked into Steam was to download the original Portal. It’s quite expensive to get a console version. In the end, I chickened out of actually getting it. Hopefully this device will end up being worth your money. And hopefully you’ll get that gaming PC one day, too.

Reblogged this on Recollections of Play and commented:

Judging by all the comments I didn’t get on my most recent United We Game post on the Alienware Alpha, I can only assume that no one cares about this not-quite “Steam Machine.” Or maybe it was due to Easter weekend, and everyone was busy with Easter-y things. Well, I do have to admit that the latter was the case for me, so it’s not like the Alienware Alpha was on my mind either. Touche? Um…that’s not how it works.

In any event, the Alienware Alpha, a little box through which one can play Steam games, hit the radar really hard late last year and then shattered into oblivion…though not quite because they are still for sale…I think. One of them has been in my house for the past three months; click the article below for some initial impressions.
