Apparently the rumors of Dell purchasing Alienware have come true. X-bit Labs has the news over here. Is this Dell's way of getting 'in' with AMD without being blunt about it?

"Even though Dell has been offering its gaming personal computers (PCs) for quite a while now, given that they all were based on processors from Intel Corp., which have not won gaming benchmarks for years now, the demand towards such PCs could not be as high as expected. Since Alienware offers both AMD- and Intel-based systems, it may have much higher success in providing gamers what they need. Additionally, Alienware will be able to get computer components from Dell now, which means better costs."
