Alienware MJ-12 7500 Desktop
Alienware is known to have the most powerful computers around whether it be desktops or notebooks they build mean machines that are truly out of this world (pun intended).
They are calling their newest desktop the Alienware MJ-12 7500 "the ultimate dream machine with innovative performance and graphics capability." Sounds great, you'll have to find out for youself (unless Alienware wants to send us a review machine that we can keep afterwards).
It looks pretty alien based on the specs that include dual-core AMD Opteron processors, NVIDIA Quadro FX graphics card, and Liquid Cooling. Build you own configurations here. Be prepared to shell out $1,500 for the basic build.
