There's one thing that I am always confused about .. why are some laptop like alienware (the very basic package) so expensive while the specs are just so so . . while some other brand like acer could be so good in spec with reasonable price . . are there any difference in term of quality ? any advice for me ?

If you ask me, its really your own choice...both have the same spec-wise..its just a matter of choosing a 14" or 15"...
